I stumbled upon this book, Let’s make some great art by Marion Deuchars, at the Museum of Modern Art here in Malmö last summer. I finally ordered it a couple of weeks ago and today it arrived in the mail. It’s got lots of simple and exciting exercises, like drawing upside down and making characters out of finger-prints. I feel energized when flipping through the pages. Certainly a good thing.
A few other good things:
Bright January days (sun and snow, even here in the south).
The latest album from Patrick Wolf, Sundark and riverlight, with reworked versions of some of my favorite songs of his.
Rereading Keri Smiths vision for a better world in this interview from 2007. A few examples: three-day work week, playgrounds based on using the imagination installed everywhere – for adults and kids, playtime implemented into work schedules, technology free days and complete reworking of the political system, making it based on human needs.
