FLOW : Letters from the moss

By Michela Griffith

The tranquility you need today. Evocations of wood and water from Scotland.

Michela's observations and writing make me smile. She illustrates her posts with lovely photographs which mean things to me. She notices the extraordinary in the ordinary and I like that.

Workbook

By Helen Reynolds

Sharing what is going on in the studio and how I try to keep the art things humming smoothly along. Also sharing the glitches in the process. Sometimes I show the art I've made, too

Helens writing is so engaging and thought provoking. for me there are so many truisms in what she says. Being an artist is not easy and requires digging deep into one's soul in order to make authentic art.

David Whyte

Poems, essays and commentaries as well as insights from my Three Sundays Series.

A Poet and philosopher, David Whyte's writing explores the timeless relationship of human beings to their world, to creation, to others, and to the end of life itself. They never fail to move me… it's visceral. I notice that often I'm close to tears and I can't quite pinpoint why. I just know they are precious.

The Gallery Companion

By Dr Victoria Powell

Art without the confusing art speak. Stories about all the stuff that artists explore and question: what’s going on, how we think and behave, and the role of art in our world.

I'm recommending this having read several posts and heard a few episodes of Victoria's podcast. They are interesting, insightful and beautifully delivered. A good read / listen.
