Wild Attention: A Celebration of Summer in Poetry & Paint

Studio & Wild Live Special with poet Katie Treggiden

Thanks to all who attended this live Studio & Wild Special session where I give you sneak peek at my art practice with friend and poet Katie Treggiden.

In celebration of the coming of Summer, Katie reads a selection of her poems, and poems that have inspired her, while I paint with early summer flowers.

In our live we cover:

  • How paying loving attention, being astonished and telling about it is radical

  • Why gratitude is an antidote to our scarcity-based economy

  • How we are inspired to create by nature

  • Nature is both the winter and the summer and we need to feel both

  • Why we shouldn’t wait until the distant future ‘when climate change has been sorted out’ in order to live the world we wish to see

We hope this live inspires you to pay loving attention to our messy, beautiful universe, be astonished and tell about it too. Share anything you make in the comments below.
