Have you ever thought about how much visual stimuli you take in, in one day? Image you are driving down the road, you are simultaneously processing visual information that helps you drive your car correctly; for example, the signs you see on the road, what you’re seeing on your dashboard, what is along the side of the roads and what you see coming from in front of you, you may even look in your rear-view mirror. It’s mind blowing what a human’s cognitive abilities can do with that information. Those cognitive abilities are what we develop and strengthen which help us as artists and quilters to create.
