Leslie Ihde’s book, Inner Art, Beauty and the Third Eye is available through amazon. Like a secret and ancient text, Inner Art offers the reader clues to the whereabouts of his or her own muse and directions on how to follow that muse. Each chapter of the book explores an artistic medium the way Socrates explored essential philosophical themes. Instead of asking, “What is Justice,” Ihde inquires into the meaning of color, line and dimension. Like a psychologist, Ihde’s work is very personal, but like a philosopher, she unearths essential questions that pertain to each of us.
Inner Art, Beauty and the Third Eye owes a debt of gratitude to artists, philosophers, Buddhists and psychologists, some of whom are quoted in the text.
Inner Art is available for $12 at www.amazon.com/Inner-Art-Beauty-without-illustrations/dp/1467923702/
