Re: Seeing, Instinct, and Interpretation

Keith - On the contrary, I wish more of us would write comments like  
this, although from my observations
the concensus on this list, most of the time, is to keep things  
technical.

What you wrote is so true - I'd only add that the ability to make  
those visual interpretations with multiple layers of
meaning -- both personal and broader, is a fantastic gift.
  As you suggest, most, if not all of us, have to work  constantly
to achieve this. It doesn't come easily!
