The Direction of Intention

99.
Join me in inspiring truly powerful people. Each day I will add a new thought, story or idea to support your quest and mine.

DeMarcus Brown was one of the pioneers of the theatre in the 20th century. He lived a vibrant 99 years of life and I was fortunate to know him in his final decade. Two of my great mentors were his students (one of them is his daughter, Marcia).

Every so often Marcia sends to me a treasure from DeMarcus’ life: some of his beautiful costume designs, set renderings, paint brushes, or a directors book. Recently, she sent a small book, hand made, filled with notes the young student DeMarcus took about design. There are riches on every page. Each day I play the game of opening to a random page. This is what I read this morning (he is writing about color):

One vibration (color) must dominate or a scheme of chaos is the result.

Everything in this world of feeling is Joy.

And truer and more real and more ultimate than paint, good than evil, every problem has its solution through the language of color – through color we add joy to this world of seeing.

Everything created must give a feeling of unity.

Taste these phrases! “A scheme of chaos.” “Through color we add joy to this world of seeing.” “Everything created must give a feeling of unity.”

This was an artist! Imagine seeing the world through those eyes!
