They are books I go back to again and again for inspiration (both artistic and otherwise!). Thanks, too, for including Danny's amazing comments about how "Everyday Matters" came to be written. I am so glad, in spite of how difficult it was personally, that he chose to share both his family's story and his wonderful artwork through this book. The healing power of each is considerable! "The Creative License," and "An Illustrated Life" are equally amazing, as well.<br /><br />Thanks, also, for the creative treasures you have shared with us all during The Book Guild.

Lucky gals, b...Congratulations to Robyn and Chris. Lucky gals, both. <br /><br />Danny Gregory was a new name to me, and I was fascinated by his story. At first I laughed as he tried to come up with a POV for his book and art, then I cried as I read the tragedy that brought his art into being.<br /><br />As someone who "publishes" (my little rambling blog) every day, I have found that people come to see the art, but the most comments are left when I include my personal feelings in the post. What a precious gift Gregory provided with his open and honest discussion of his story. <br /><br />And what a gift you have given me and all your readers to have discovered Gregory and his art today, the last Book Guild entry.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7526011052298598356.post-73912530532443387582010-09-05T01:53:59.536-04:002010-09-05T01:53:59.536-04:00What a wonderful surprise to wake up to this Sunda...What a wonderful surprise to wake up to this Sunday morning!
