"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Let us try an Advent Calendar

Well, it’s that time of the year again. And this year is particularly tough for artists, who usually rely on Christmas markets to support themselves. So I thought I should try something. Emphasis on “trying”, because I have already committed to give you a book each week (#books) and I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to live up to another committment, but I will – as I said – try and be consistent with this as well.

Oh, stop patronizing me already!

I’ll try and recommend you artists who have their shop on-line, so that you can help me support them. We need art and beauty in our lives. This year, more than ever. They will be under #calendargirl and hopefully pinged back to this post.
