Synesthesia
The word synesthesia comes from two Greek words, syn (together) and aisthesis (perception). Therefore, synesthesia literally means "joined perception."http://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/syne.html
Synesthesia
"It is imagination that first taught man the moral meaning of color, of contour, of sound, and of scent. In the beginning of the world it created analogy and metaphor." —Charles Baudelaire

Painting
Painting is a blind man's profession. He paints not what he sees, but what he feels, what he tells himself about what he has seen.

The Hand
Paint bears physical record to the expressions of the human hand. It conforms to the trail of the brush being driven by impulses of the psyche. In no other art medium is creation more permanently and intimately bound to the movements of the human body.
