Artistic Knowing – Christine Valters Paintner and Betsey Beckman
“Artistic knowing is different from intellectual knowing, engaging us symbolically and in embodied ways, stretching us beyond the limits of the rational, linear thinking upon which we tend to rely.”
— Christine Valters Paintner, PhD,and Betsey Beckman, MM Awakening the Creative Spirit: Bringing the Arts to Spiritual Direction
What is something you’ve learned ‘artistically’ that you hadn’t learned in a more ‘traditional’ way?
Artistic is not mechanical, it comes from the soul. It is God’s gift to ease our weary minds.
To trust myself.
