From Australia, Sally Martin is an art course instructor, which enables you to come to a much deeper understanding of how colours arise in the first place through the meeting of light and darkness. Light and darkness are polarities, creative principles. With the first shining of the light into the darkness, movement arises. Colour is born out of this mighty interaction.

The word ‘darkness’ used in this context means the archetypal darkness that was in the beginning, before creation began. Not the night, nor evil, nor blackness, but a darkness that has as its essence warmth, love, integrity and self-sacrifice. Out of this darkness everything came into being, even the light. Even now everything is born out of the darkness.
Opposite this darkness is the light. Not the light that has to do with daylight, nor goodness, but a light that is able to create space, to activate, to bring to form; a stage of completion where everything dies over into the past as a preparation for the next step of metamorphosis.

With a soft light the movements of the darkness are more quiet, soft and gentle. Then as the light becomes stronger there is quicker movement, and the darkness becomes more transparent and crystalline. The movement is an expression of the love the darkness has for the light, and this becomes visible as colour.
