Notes On Blogging Aesthetics XXIV

Very occasionally ideas come to me in a moment of blinding creative inspiration, but far more usually they tend to seep into my consciousness very gradually, in a sort of artistic osmosis. Often ideas come about as a result of something I’ve seen and liked or been fascinated with. An image or a concept might sit in my head for years until eventually it meets another notion lurking in there somewhere and between them they form a complete idea.
