    Default INxp art

    I've stumbled across these two sets of artworks/paintings while browsing through Stumbleupon... and thought those were interesting. Perhaps because they resemble some sort of a Ni "vision". Well needless to say that I really like them. What do you think?

    Anyone know of more stuff like these?

    Could be.





    These next two are by Caspar David Friedrich.









    That last one is very Ni, no?

    That last picture of the man by the ocean really speaks to me. I don't know why, it just does. I think perhaps it epitomizes and sums up all that Ni aspires to be.. or is.. just looking at it gives me a really calming sense inside myself. I would be at total peace and happiness if I were in that man's position, just gazing out into the depths of the ocean and losing myself with the sensations all around me, coming up with connections to what I am feeling through my mind.

    I really love nature in general and being "one" with it.. Even though this sounds quite

    Of those, I like this one best.

You get a sense of some benevolent safeguard against feeling completely enveloped and entombed in unrestrained metallic sprawl - no matter how small we feel in the presence of our concrete jungles, there is always something much bigger out there to dwarf it all; something less garish and much more serene than our gnarled roads and overpasses and frenetic lights.:

Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love."
