  1. Deep Blackness, the unknown, without the light is scary. But bring light in, colour and shape emerge transforming the perspective!

  2. Darkness itself doesn't scare me … only what may be lurking within it.

  4. Oh good question! I think many of us have a complex reaction to darkness. It can both soothe and terrify. It represents the unknown and the unknown can be both alluring and frightening. My darkness fears are relatively practical. I don't have a supernatural concept of good and evil, I am just inclined to wonder if there is an unseen slug to step on with bare feet or a hungry cougar lurking there. xoxo
