The Sunday Papers: 13

Welcome to The Sunday Papers. Grab a cuppa, get comfy and turn the virtual pages. Didn't get last week's paper delivery? See every edition here.

ART CRUSH
 Today's paper features a single work of art from a single artist: Glenda Miles - my art crush this week. 


In early April, Glenda attended a workshop I was teaching at the mixed media retreat Art is You in Santa Rosa, California. The class, a new one for me, was called Table of Contents. The brief was to create a series of bound booklets, each of which reflected a chapter of your life and all of which were then wrapped up inside book covers.  

The class was filled with talented people but Glenda's creation and the stories behind it moved me so that I wanted to share it with you. Wish you could all hold this and turn every page!




















You can also find Glenda on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter
