Update to Subscribers

Greetings!

I will return to my story narrative in the next post, if you didn’t receive my letter last week, I have a few additions along with posting brand new work just complete today!

Dear Subscribers & Friends of Art,

I hope this finds you all well and enjoying the New Year?

By continuing to fill your life with art you award yourself a unique gift.
Viewing art improves your health, cognitive & communication skills, your own creativity & innovativeness. It increases empathy while decreasing depression & anxiety. Art can actually improve rest, productivity & healing.

Landscape art may be one of the most competitive genres, it’s also the most proven for positive health, offering some the incredible benefits that nature gives.

I attempt to offer a connection to the outdoors with emotional content of being immersed in nature, and hope to encourage real life wilderness wandering.

Included in the 2-4x monthly new art unveiling, are stories filled with inspirational content woven with a creative thread. Whether it be art & industry information, wellness, design, creative individuals & organizations, or nature or art process news offers you a glimpse of life connected to art.
It’s my hope to inform, motivate and inspire you to discover art & nature, satisfy your questions, find confidence collecting & living with art, enjoying the richness it can bring to all aspects of your life.

I am happy to announce I have not missed creating new work or a post every month for 8 years!

Health & Fitness Magazines as far away as Australia have discovered the posts, sending lovely letters of commendation sharing my blog with their readers. Here are two of those with article links I quite enjoyed.
