Lovely! What a find at the little free library! I have the full Narnia box set collection from when I was a kid and have recently thought about going through it again. Thank you for the suggestion. And I read Quiet at the beginning of the pandemic, as a highly-energized extrovert, trying to better understand the "other people", lol. It was an excellent eye-opener for me and I learned a lot. PS: I love the map art. Beautiful and breath-taking!
Love the map paintings....was about to inquire about commissioning you when you said argh, too hard to do....re-consider??
Re-read the Narnia series this summer after many years and tumbled through time and space in a beautiful way. Great find in the little library. The book found you.
okay, I'm not trying to talk you into making money doing portraits on maps...but....I REALLY like the portrait you did of me....and.....while the "background noise" of the map may make fine-tuning the image difficult, it adds an inexplicable element and narrative that couldn't be created with intent. Admittedly, that's the Dadaist in me talking - I always find it compelling when chance overrides artistic intent.
It's called The Artist Mindset Program with artist/coach/mentor Cheryl Taves of Metchosin. She has a an IG account @insightcreativecoaching and website insightcreativecoaching.com I know Cheryl personally and believe this will be a really great program!
Thanks Betty Ann for another interesting look into your brain! I too struggle with that whole thing about making money from your art; it's very hit and miss. I'm starting a program this fall that will help me "go deep" and try to figure out what inspires me and why and then what to do with it!
What a find in the little free library! I really enjoyed the Quiet book when I read it years ago. I did feel seen! Moving to a new place soon and I’ll have actual space to do some art. Finally been feeling inspired by Mary Ruefle’s book "Private Property" she has these great little essays about colours I want to interpret.
This time of year is about transitions, so I guess one way to look at is that you're very seasonally aligned! I'll always read your words from whichever square you're standing on. xx
