Happy New Year! Welcome to 2025!
There’s a lot that gets attributed to the transition of new year but it is merely a day - the turning of a page on a manmade calendar. I prefer nature’s days - the winter solstice in nature’s calendar - for a tangible moment of stillness and a reminder that nature gives us our answers, guidance, inspiration, if you just slow…and listen…..
In this month’s subscriber post I invite you to pause and let the good stuff come to you. I share a 20 minute video from my studio sharing my sketchbook work and insights into my developing process. I give you tasks to work through to come closer to your authentic creative self. I offer ways to holistically nurture yourself by sharing what I am reading, listening to and watching. You can see what I am creating, a poem I have written and gain some direction for the year ahead.
Subscribers get access to the back catalogue of all my posts. This year, I will be adding some interviews with other artists as well as marking out the year, sharing my studio-life and insights, as well as free lessons from my online courses. I am committed to enabling creativity in others. Subscription costs £5 per month or £50 per year and supports my writing practice helping me to reach a wider audience and sustain my life as an artist where I rely on the kindness of others to see the value in my work and the hope that creativity gives us all.
I am so grateful to have you in my community. With love,
