Art Week

When we began our call for submissions on Storied Stuff, we anticipated receiving insightful and specific memories linked to treasured objects.  What we did not fully anticipate were the recurring themes that emerged in many of the pieces. Organizing and sorting through these heartfelt pieces has been a joy and privilege. The fun of seeing a theme emerge is an added delight.

The six pieces posted this week explore a range of art experience.  There are words from the artists we admire, art we make ourselves, the art gifted by those we love, and the discovery or rediscovery of the artist within. There is art that illustrates who we were and who we might become.

Welcome to the gallery.
