Stunning coastal walk this afternoon with Ruth (from DAS!) visiting - the sea, the sky, the space... It's easy to be inspired in such a place! Pics from the day here
Many things inspire us, in nature, in people, in art... I love this hymn to inspiration from Laura, especially the artists' invocation - "Talk to us, Heavenly Muse; shine on us awhile..." :)
This is sooooo interesting & illuminating (about Laura's aunt): https://youtu.be/m0a574YPNhI
By the way, did you know Laura's aunt was a prominent artist? Reading about her, there are definitely some similarities between the two of them! It's another little-known part of the background that helped shape Laura's genius... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theresa_Bernstein
I realised I had heard the song when the shoop shoopers came in because that seem unusual. But I'd not heard of the artist so then went off researching her,her church and the connection to Frida. Then listened to the song several more times just to let it settle in.
I like this song a lot! The shoop shoopers are great. I don’t think I’ve heard it before. Thank you for sharing!
Excellent timing! Glad you had a nice day! Can’t wait to see and listen…the sample is beautiful :)
