This painting situates itself in the quiet place at the beginning of the creative process or a thought; a moment when something stirs, where an unknown feeling rushes in and gently reaches you like the delicate touch of a wing to your skin. Virginia Woolf wrote, in a letter to Vita Sackville-West, "I had a tremendous sense of life beginning; and all the doors opening; and this is I believe the moth shaking its wings in me; ideas rush in me."
