It's a high quality, fine arts/writing and photography magazine that generally is a cover to cover read. It's been very interesting following it online. The cyber version has kept my appetite piqued while away from my own library and mailbox and as always, the monthly literary themes seem to anticipate events.
July '09 is a fine example.
Then, there's a delightful find -via- The Poetry Foundation where the front story, by Jenny Jarvie, is about the astonishing literary collection of Raymond Danowski. All of us who've spent time and investment honing our private libraries, wondering what might come of them beyond our caring devotion, will enjoy this remarkable story.
Today, I was also given a grand treat by friend and fine writer, Terry Collett. Terry introduced me to the classic photography of Julia Cameron. This is an example of her tremendous portraits taken in the mid 1800's. Expect a feature article comparing her soft focus work to contemporary photographers such as Sally Mann, and Patrisha McLean.
The end of July brings us closer to the high peak of summer where many of the best afternoons and evenings are spent drawing, exploring good books and writing our own creations.
Tuck away in a shadowy bower or nook. Stay attentive and enjoy!
