All the study in the world won’t produce a painting by itself, so figuring out the tools is necessary. But the end result is mostly interesting without any knowledge of the brand of paint, the weight of the canvas, or even the particular tools used to transfer paint from the palette.

Slow blogging makes sense to me because it's about practice in both the traditional and meditative senses of the term. It's about going deep and connecting, but maintaining a powerful mental stillness in which we can really hear the world around us: the whispers, the wind, and the sound of our own thinking.
