    It’s all about what the artist SEES – sometimes the viewer gets on the artist’s slipstream and soars with the “one-winged butterfly”. Other times, the world at large pigeon holes the visionary as either crazy, too young to do it “right” or a genius whose God given artistic gift is rare and awe inspiring. Maybe Rachel Carson said it best: ” If I had influence with the good fairy . . . I should ask that her gift to each child in the world be a sense of wonder so indestructible that it would last throughout life, as an unfailing antidote against the boredom and disenchantments of later years, the sterile preoccupation with things that are artificial, the alienation from the sources of our strength.”
