Artists who Stare into their Creative Self Vignette There is a reckoning in the soul of every artist. It begins as a tremor, a flicker of light, almost imperceptible, yet relentless in hunger. That precise moment when the artist is alone, silhouetted against the radiance of an internal inferno and stares unflinchingly into their creative self. They dwell in the space between inspiration and doubt, bathed in the glow of possibilities and tormented by the fear of mediocrity. To exceed the ordinary, the artist knows, is both a blessing and a curse. Each touch, each word, each act of creation becomes a paradox: an offering to eternity but rooted in the fleeting frailty of the present. What if they fail? What if the light within, so achingly bright, burns them to ash rather than illuminating their path? The act of creation is no longer a choice; it has become a necessity. There is no turning back. Like a lone figure before the furnace of their own making, the artist surrenders to the ...

CRAP: 4 basic principles of design
Your reflection should incorporate all four principles of CRAP:
Contrast,
Repetition,
Alignment,
Proximity,
CONTRAST
Contrast focuses our attention and should be used to highlight the most important points that the audience should take away. Designers should use colors, bold type, and size to distinguish parts of text or an image and create contrast.
REPETITION
Repetition ties objects or images together. It is why sporting teams have pattern repetition of their uniforms. In regards to text, repetition of fonts, styles, and sizes unify the design.
ALIGNMENT
Alignment indicates organization, polish, and strength. Text on a page is easier to read and understand if it is properly aligned to the margin. Alignment should be applied to every design or page layout to show order.
PROXIMITY
Proximity creates relationships within objects in an image. Placing objects close together shows their connectedness and focuses the audience’s attention. For example, captions placed near photos on a page layout show that they describe the photos they are near.

Liminal Spaces - A Journey of Self and Mystery Vignette As dusk settles in, the mountain air is thick with unspoken thoughts as I walk a familiar yet uncharted path. Two figures, their faces obscured in contemplation, walk alongside me. Their presence is a silent reminder of my journey—a mix of exhilarating peaks and despairing valleys. The twilight, caught between day and night, reflects the in-betweenness of my existence, a liminal space where past and future blur. Each step forward is an act of faith, a surrender to the unknown, a feeling I'm sure many of you can relate to. Unspoken Thoughts in the Final Hours Our Silent Reflections of Unknowns Vignette The destination? The journey itself, along with the transformation it, sparks within me. Still, like the persistent mountain shadows, a question lingers: who are these companions on my path? Their identities remain covert, their purpose a mystery—a riddle waiting to be unravelled in the memories of my becoming. Nu Jazz by JJFBb...
