A collection of odes to normal and mundane things sounds spectacular! It’d be fun to read - and would bring a lot of excellent noticing to your own daily walk :)
Grant, i have followed you for a long time and was so excited to receive your book. It is as wonderful as i had hoped! I share your fascination with interesting words. I am a poet and artist also - you inspire me!!!
Thank you, such beauty in Pablo’s words and in your own words and images. Colibri I knew, and it reminds me of a song I was learning on guitar around the time of the lockdowns and was interrupted.. I’m inspired to return to it.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this today and learning about humming moths! I love the idea of odes to mundane daily things 💚
Thank you. It's been many years since I've taken my Neruda books off the shelf and read them. This was a reminder .....
I love Pablo Neruda's works so much. Thank you for featuring them in your illustrations!

Already started drafting it! Drawing will be the challenging part...

An ode to formless cloud changes.
You awaken me from cloud spotting lying on the grass and forms my praise of every drawn ink line made.
A beautiful post with everything included! Educational, inspirational, emotional and creative. Fabulous, thanks
Thanks so much, April!
I’ve been working on a poem in honor of Neruda, Ode to My Poisoner. Best line so far? “Dreams of the father / Nightmare of the son.”
This has definitely given me some good poetic ideas. Thanks!
Love this post! Your art is such a gift!
Thank you Diane!

Great to hear that, Lisa! Glad to be an inspiration :)

Glad it reminded you of the song, thanks!
