Epiphany - Creative Energies Spark
Raphael Sanzio: The School of Athens

In the magic of this collaborative creative process, Gaia's
inspiration, to have her string quartet play for the unveiling of the
painting, became the center of the painting itself. It was as if the
moment she envisioned the finished painting in her mind, her spirit
offered the music to accompany the painting. Wildcat and students agreed
to capture that moment, that epiphany, her creative offering and their
music forever in the painting. As we chose characters for the painting,
their quartet became the center, the heart of the painting.
