IDEA

from JAMES (JAMES_MICKELSON@HOTMAIL.COM)
I would like help with an idea that is roaring around in this feeble noggin' of mine. I hope Shawn doesn't mind. I can't post images yet until I get one more window installed in the remodeled studio area. I'd like help coming up with a symbol for a universal idea. What physical utensil or object represents the ideals handed down from generation to generation throughout human cultural history. What object represents the culture and knowlege handed down from mother or grandmother to daughter? Image- black background with small childs hand outstretched towards an aged adult female hand bearing........what? What physical object represents all these cultural ideals and knowlege? I've tried wheat stalks, rice stalks, beads, beads w/cross, knife, ect. But these all are lacking a universality. There must be some object that transcends cultures. Blood? I'm stumped and come here to all of you. The creativity here is awesome and hopefully you can help me with this idea. You are welcome to run with this idea and hopefully get a Pulitzer or something. Thanks Shawn. James, a regular
