Link of the Month
I now have a new LINK OF THE MONTH for you to explore which will introduce a new and exciting website which has resonated in some way with my own heart.
http://www.positivelypositive.com I came across this website by accident ~ not sure how but that's serendipity for you. It has a robust and real feel to it, nothing wishywashy Pollyannaish. At its core, Positively Positive is about optimism and inspiration. About seeing the possibility within each person—and within each day gifted us. It’s about wisdom and how we lift one another up to richer, more fulfilling lives. It’s about tapping into our true nature and capacity.

I personally view most of my visionary art as visual metaphors for many of the great perennial wisdoms found at the core of most spiritual beliefs."

www.samwinston.com and www.songhaein.com : I met these two young artists at the wedding party of mutual friends. Sam and Haein both have a way with words. Through his explorations of language Sam Winston creates sculpture, drawings and books that question our understanding of words, both as a carriers of messages and as information itself . Haein is a bookbinder. Whilst Sam sets words free and releases them from their pages to become something other than mere words, Haein enfolds them within protective covers of beauty. A perfectly syzygy relationship!!
