With the advent of amazing computer programs, I create a book for my inspiration.
When I get to several hundred pages I will have it printed ….. just for me.
I have a book for Textile artists… like the one in process above.
One for graffiti art, One for artists and writers.
A gallery here in Santa fe has given me a wealth of artists to follow. Manitou Galleries. One of those artists I need to know more about is Fran Larsen. Her art has captured my imagination.
You could look up the information you need on the net… and cut and paste to a program or file.
I figure if I do all that work I need to have something in my hand at the end of all that work.
I used to save magazines… but it gets confusing… now I do a virtual clipping into my book.
Tonight I researched the work of Mary Snowden.
Robert Henri.
Good idea Pam. I collect such stuff. I have two folders called ”Potively’ a collection of inspiring articles collected over quite a long period. The design file is huge and unsorted…..and that’s pre computer. I have started reading ‘Steve Jobs’ the author Walter Isaacson has me enthralled, I love it. My fav quote so far is his term of ‘gathering string’ ie threads for the project. I have a lovely pen & ink illustration on the wall of a jar with little bits of string, ie inferring a collection of no particular purpose….yet! So appropriate.
POSITIVELY -, this auto spell catches you out!
