Sorry for the long lull in between posts. Had to build up my writerly blog and do revisions on the novel. I’ll be much for consistent from now on. Hopefully, a post every three or four days.
Here’s a cool video I found to teach a writing workshop. People had to watch it, then a give a small review of it. So, give me your review!
So, I’m going to try and post more regularly here. ‘Tis a pain in the arse, I must say, doing two blogs at once. And I don’t even like to write! What’s a writing instructor to do? Turn herself over to the world of Bosch, a mid 15th century Dutch lad with an overactive imagination. Below is the right panel (Hell) from his 1510 Triptych, The Garden of Earthly Delights, a wonderfully strange retelling of ”the fall of man” (the second picture is a detail of the Hell panel).
So, I promise that within the next couple of weeks, I’ll be delivering more links to all the artists I’ve met on Facebook, and will try to comment here at least once or twice a week. In the meantime, I leave you with two of my favorite weird you tubes.
Youtube #1: Bosch and Buckethead.
Youtube #2: Body parts (faces, hands, feet) made out of bread:
“If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel’s heart beat, and we should die of that roar which lies on the other side of silence.” George Eliot
A keen vision of ordinary life. Beautiful. Heartbreaking. This will be an ongoing conversation of art, literature, life, writing, all that is ordinary human life.
