the fleeting rightness of time and place that creates the opportune atmosphere

the obsessive repetition of an act until it is perfect or mastered

the restless race of the traveller’s heart before the journey begins

beautiful or creative; divinely inspired; peaceful and perfect

an enduring and consuming passion

a place where one feels at home; the place where you are your most authentic self

the joyful, intense anticipation that comes from imagining future pleasures

the mysterious power of art to deeply move a person

describing an experience that makes you fearful, yet fascinated, awed yet attracted—the powerful

to do something with soul, creativity, or love; to put something of yourself into your work

relying on chance or an uncontrolled element in the creation of art

one who loves life deeply and lives it to the extreme
