Making a Painting is Like Raising a Child
a: Making a Painting ~
b: Raising a Child
What: "After I have prepared a canvas with gesso and possibly a colored ground, I make the first marks. Lines and colors flow onto surface. I am delighted and surprised at what appears. It is fresh and new. It is like falling in love with your new baby. Everything is a discovery, a surprise."

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
