artists

For those interested in photography (capturing or viewing):

Souvenirs, a set on flickr--this guy takes souvenirs to their homeland and snap fun photographs 

Exposure: A Photography Competition--pretty major deal with big prizes 

Artists often live a solitary life. We struggle with loneliness. We struggle with being misunderstood. We struggle with rejection. So on this journey, who do we turn to? Who are our allies?

This is a prayer from the Transforming Culture symposium. On Monday,  I'll continue my interactions with it, namely with our allies in the artistic journey. In the meantime, let this prayer bathe you in the clear, baptismal waters, and get down with your creative self. (Did I really just say that?) 

We now embark on the next part of the story, Meeting the Mentor (Christopher Vogler's paraphrase of Joseph Campbell's hero structure).

Tomorrow, I'll continue my interaction with the Transforming Culture symposium, specifically with Eugene Peterson's talk (yes, the translator of The Message).

In the meantime, some random thoughts.

Politics in a Waiting Room
