What I am trying to translate to you is more mysterious; it is entwined in the very roots of being, in the impalpable source of sensations. ♦ Paul Cézanne

Isn't it fascinating how the very essence of our artistic existence involves tapping into something profound and often elusive? Just like Paul Cézanne, who challenged conventional norms of art and steered his work into areas that went beyond mere appearances, we too, are constantly chasing those fleeting, intangible moments that reach the root of our common human experience. He found himself less captivated by the superficial and more enchanted by the emotional and sensory depths of his subjects. He wasn't merely painting objects; he was conveying emotions, feelings, and the profound mysteries of existence. He sought out a deeper truth in art we shouldn't be satisfied with the surface or the superficial. We should dig deeper, push boundaries, and aim to capture that which lies hidden.

There's a lighthearted saying that we artists are part detective, part magician, and perhaps there's some truth to it. Each brushstroke, each line, is an investigation into the mysteries of being and an attempt to conjure magic from the mundane. It's almost as if we have this shared secret, a wink and a nod between us, acknowledging our quest for the intangible. Cézanne's inspires us to embrace the ethereal, the mysterious, and the deeply personal in our art. After all, why settle for the surface when the real treasures are buried just a little deeper?
