However, on reflection, I don't do much conceptual thinking when I work on paper, either; most often they're based on vague "themes" if there is any thinking involved. Mostly I let the eyes and fingers do the work. So what does that say about me; that I don't do much thinking and much more of my "making" is automatic/mechanical?

Really. xoCate Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04079028386218370915noreply@blogger.com
