Dear Bold Souls

Dearest Bold Souls,
I so cherish and admire you all!
This is what some bold souls say to (or about) me, followed by what I say to you, dear bold soul :)
Love the beautiful smiles on these bold souls…

Meg is wonderful – she has such great energy I can feel it all the way from Australia – I hope you took a minute to check out her art. It is the kind of art you can live with everyday and everyday it will make you smile!- Tammy Vitale 

Here is Louise holding in her hands the last of the lino print edition “A Cat Named Magpie”! Now you know it’s gone to a good home :)

The prints are truly more vibrant and lovely than I even imagined — I’m beyond honoured to hang these in my humble abode. They really are going to bring a bold and nourishing splash of colour to our lives.

Thanks Bold Souls, for:

• having the courage it takes to sign up to a random Australian colour-enthusiast art lady’s blog, trusting that I might write something worth reading, or making some art that’s worth looking at
• connecting at art markets and online, with your kind comments you frequently make my day
• your delight at things human, funny and beautiful
• that special big-heartedness you show when you choose something for a friend that you like too; you know you’re going to give it away and you find joy, too, in the giving
• drinking in with your eyes colour combinations that you won’t see in any civilised magazine (unless it’s an amazingly good magazine. Haha!)
• your courage to be vibrant and optimistic when many are muttering ‘Global Financial Crisis’ and ‘The End is Nigh’
• speaking up on behalf of those who cannot, when speaking up is needed
• taking care of children, and importantly the child within yourself who breathes in and smiles at the goodness of living each day
• for coming and keeping me company on this journey through art and through life. I am totally touched to have you on this beautiful path along with me

Tons of love,
Meg x o
