As per- straight back to other work before completing creative work - really must be better about that!
…So to start the creativity going again, here are two opposing pieces (and artists) that caught my eye and inspired me in NY the other week:
Varus (c) Anselm Kiefer
Rome Pays Off (c) Jean-Michel Basquiat
The first is disturbing, perhaps, [...]

I would like to invite you to watch "The Story of Stuff".
Have you ever wondered where all this stuff comes from…and where it goes when we throw it out?
Created by Annie Leonard (and a team…) The Story of Stuff details exactly that - how stuff travels through our system! And it presents extremely complex [...]

What does real change look like?
I drew this up to amuse myself the other day while musing on real change at the same time as writing about organisational change processes for a client…and watching/dealing with the changes thrust upon people close to me …

Walking through I spied the above line drawing, (c) Markus Vater, in a (sadly closed) gallery window - and I quickly captured it, and Markus‘ name, with my little mobile/cell-phone camera*for me to remember.

Well today, I remembered him… Don’t you just love the [...]

The other day I thought "Mondrian". And as I sat to write today it came back…
At the same time, this very morning, I mapped out my family story project "the family forest" as if it was a patchwork quilt.

I just saw this image and was reminded of something I wanted to blog about almost 2 years ago - "everyone can draw"
If you ask a child if they can draw they will likely say ‘yes’ and grin. They will also likely go draw you something and expect you to see what it is and [...]

I tried to write this post on movement and the space between thrice - and lost it each time.
Rather than try to again recreate my lengthy notes and thoughts I have decided to put some notes I had written elsewhere below and took this as an opportunity to first share the [...]

This being human is a guest house
Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they are a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still treat each guest [...]
