I am a professional writer and photographic artist living in Utah. I am the author of several books, a blogger, and an educator. In my photographs, I aim to express emotions and moods rather than to document or commemorate the appearances of places or events.

Aboutness—Further Thoughts

Today, I share with you more thoughts on the topic of “aboutness,” which I discuss in a couple of my books. As always, I offer these essays free of the annoyances of advertising and paywalls. Still, if it is within your means to contribute as little as a couple of dollars to support this blog—the work and costs that go into publishing and maintaining it—please consider making a small financial con

Quotes by Guy Tal  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“To create is not to simply capture or record; it is to invent and to infuse—knowingly, deliberately, and expertly—something of the artist’s own mind into the work so that the result is elevated not by its literal appearance alone, but by the significance inscribed, stamped, and sealed into it by its creator—a significance that would never exist without the artist’s subjective imagination and skill. This requires hard work and expert knowledge of one’s chosen medium, not only in the operation of tools or in producing objects of aesthetic appeal, but also in understanding the minds of viewers.”
Guy Tal, More Than a Rock, 2nd Edition: Essays on Art, Creativity, Photography, Nature, and Life
