Dear Reader,

Being sensitive is intrinsic to what makes us creative. 

By looking closely, we notice the things that others might overlook. By listening, whether to the noise or the silence, we connect to ourselves and our place in the world. Through fragrance and our sense of smell, memories are both created and released. Our taste preferences can manifest literally when we prepare our food, but also metaphorically through art-making and curation. Touch leads us to the tactile pleasure of making things with our hands and the appreciation of texture. 

The creative senses are many—and go beyond the physical five. Inspiration, wonder, faith, vision and love—what if we defined these as senses as well? These feelings all inform our intuition, a sense that is perhaps the strongest as it guides us to create from deep within ourselves, from our heart and mind, and from the soul.
