  7. Gill McGrath – UK – I am an artist. I love paper. I love using limited color/colour. I work quickly in oils and with pastels. Things close to hand make the best subjects for me. I write everyday.... shopping lists, to do lists, poetry of sorts... and a diary, often on the same page. And now I take photos everyday.....and I think I am a street photographer. I am 'In touch with Emma' at ~ gillmcgrath.com

  8. Don – My name is Don Scrooby and I live in The United Kingdom. I feel that more than anything else, nature, and the objective things around us, convey a speech and a message we always need to listen to and follow. This kind of listening is life-giving and there is a certain form spirituality about it. In this blog, through the the photographic image and accompanying words, I’ve tried to share this experience as simply as I can. There is an underlying beauty in nature we all need to see and experience, especially in this day and age as we struggle to save our planet. Most of my shots are taken with a Fujifilm XT100 camera and my Iphone. I’m no professional Photographer, but I do enjoy outdoor walks with my simple gear trying to capture what I see and experience.

  15. Gretchen Del Rio – Crestline, California, USA – I first discovered the magic of water based colors when many years ago I began to paint with procion dyes on silk. I loved the unexpected quality of the process. It was so exciting to never be sure what the colors and water would combine to produce. It seemed as though the medium had its own passion. Painting with watercolors and paper is much the same. I love the color combinations and separations that occur spontaneously as the color floats on the water. You can never totally predict what effect will result. If you try to control the medium too much, your painting will be very tight losing its aliveness. The artist must be bold and decisive or the work will not be clear and fresh. It is really like a dance. It becomes a controlled folly in knowing when to let go and when to take charge of the direction that the painting is taking. The images that I paint reflect my emotions and are expression of my life experience. They are not extensively planned, but rather evolve as the painting progresses. I am always surprised by the end result since it comes into being because of what the medium and emotion has suggested. The paintings are from my heart and I always fall in love with the subject. I believe that we are all connected and, if an image touches you, it is because we all have the same heart even though our paths may be different. Most of all, painting what I paint makes me happy. The paintings are my own path unfolding. They are an opening door for me and contain my own passion for life.

    Such industry. She should come to my house because there is a lot of dog fur floating around. Good for lining nests.

  24. Appleton – Southern California – I'm afraid for the future. My grandson's future. They predict that by 2050 cities like Miami, Bangkok, Mumbai, New York, Tokyo will be under water. (https://theswiftest.com/underwater-cities/#:~:text=There%20are%20numerous%20heavily%20populated,%E2%80%9Centirely%20underwater%20by%202050%E2%80%9D.) Every year there are more people living on the streets. Cost of Living has gone up, cost of groceries went up, cost of gas went way, way up. And income has not kept pace. Average cost of living is around $45,000. On average, nearly 50% of people in the US make less than $50,000 per year. (https://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~rwest/wikispeedia/wpcd/wp/h/Household_income_in_the_United_States.htm#:~:text=Households%20with%20annual%20income%20of,represented%2023.25%25%20of%20the%20population.) Yet CEOs are making record bonuses, and companies are pulling in massive profits. So I rant and vent here. Join me. Maybe we will each learn something.
