Wanderlust Art Letters
~ Ca' d'Oro, "House of Gold," Venice, watercolor ~
Wherever in this vast and beautiful world you may be as you read this message, I hope that your day is filled with serenity and joy.
Whether you are a new reader, or a long time reader, you may have noticed my “twin passions” for painting wanderlust inspired watercolors, and also for writing.
And what is lovely about living creatively (something I believe is available to each and every one of us whether or not we identify as Artists) is that we get to apply that creativity to how we live and what we want our lives to look like.
Along these lines, I had been dreaming for quite some time about creatively merging my painting and writing practices into something new. I also have a love for artful paper products, such as stationary and bookmarks, which I’ve sometimes offered here in the past. Weaving together all of these, is a delightful offering that I have been designing for the past few months. And I am so excited to be sharing it with you today....
Wanderlust Art Letters.
Wanderlust Art Letters are letters in which I share my travel tales and travel secrets, along with my watercolor art, featuring a different place each month. These are lovingly designed and crafted letters that are written and addressed to you, signed by yours truly. They will be delivered as artful “snail mail” to your mailbox, where you can enjoy moments of watercolor wanderlust from the comfort of your home.
Your letters will also arrive with blank stationary, featuring my artwork, which you can use to write your own letter to a loved one, or perhaps indulge your own travel dreams upon.
Each letter is a story, a memory, a dream, and a watercolor painting, celebrating the beauty and enchantment of a place I have travelled to over my years of traveling and making art abroad. The stories will be own personal travel travels, sometimes sprinkled with a delightful touch of the imaginary. But all of it will be steeped in the impressions and inspirations I have gained from my travels.
Drawing from my background and practice in the field of Architecture, I will also be sharing fun Architectural and historically referenced facts about each painted location. These will be woven into the letters along with my own personal experiences of traveling there and what each place evoked in me.
We’ll start with Venice, of course! And subsequent letters will feature surprise locations.
There are various subscription options offered, and you can sign up for just one month, or three months.
The first letter, my Venice letter, will actually have a lovely hint of romance, in celebration of Valentine’s Day this month.
I do hope you’ll take a look, if this might sound of interest. And if you’ll enjoy signing up, I am so delighted to be sending you an artful treat in the mail, celebrating, dreams, travels, art, adventure, and the beauty of breathtaking places around the world.
As they say in Italian, Buon Viaggio, in wanderlust dreams and art, and perhaps something delightful will be making its way to your mailbox soon....
