There is a perseverant constancy of forms in Nature. We find it even when it is not motivated by rational impulses, by the urge to imitate other forms, or in aero and hydrodynamic contexts.
The octopus resembles the tuft of algae, the ginseng root to a small man, the
fish to the flower.
It’s an evidency that excludes any randomness.

How to be seen clearly in the works of any authentic artist, the creative force – or God, or Nature, however we could choose to call it here- has, fundamentally, an infinite variety of appearances, a coherence immediately visible to the attentive eye.
Carolina Goedeke went to the origin of this source, and reveals it in a vivid and oscillating but equally cohesive synthesis.

What she calls absence of rational control is her ability to commit herself to the resonance with Nature and transmit it to us with colours.
Vice versa, maybe, those who see her watercolor paintings will then more easily, and more willingly, perceive this joyful background note within.
