Спасибо огромное за эту беседу ♥️ я увлечена войлоком и также пришла к нему после графики и любимой акварели! Эта идея свободы от страха ошибки очень мне близка, это открывает огромные возможности для нового. Да, войлок, шерсть - это бесконечные опыты и варианты для воплощения своих идей в текстиле. Спасибо вам, работы потрясающие, смотрела и слушала с большим удовольствием и интересом!

This is inspiring ❣️Kind regards from Mexico City 🫶

So lovely to be reminded about play and surprise!! I also loved “tasting the silence” in the room as we worked… it was such a privilege to have you as our tutor at Wanganui Girls Aotearoa Textiles. Thank you again!

Thanks, for this conversation, Angela and Marjolein. Gave me again stuff to chew on!

Thank you!! My husband will repeatedly ask me over the last 2years: “you have so many art pieces, why don’t you sell them?” I flounder with an answer. Now (thanks to you two) I can say I’m not ready. That resonated with me! In fact, I look at some items I’ve had for many years and I look at them with fresh eyes, knowing I have changed, the piece now needs to evolve with me…for ME to feel satisfied before I “show it” even on IG. Ang, as usual, you do a great and sensitive interview! Best wishes to you, the team and MD you interviewed here. 😘❤️😘

A wonderful interview with a very talented artist (-: Marion 🎉

Great talk, I so agree with keeping your work to yourself until you’re ready for the world to see it!

Questions & Answers: Every artist must own ...? ... "a space where they can work" Every artist must believe ...? ... "that you have the right to do this (your) work" Every artist must create ...? ... "the time to do it (their work)" Every artist must avoid ...? ... "showing when you are not ready. (respect your process!)" Every artist must accept ...? ... "mistakes, failure ... it's not a big deal, it's not final. Failure is not final. I learned most from my failing. And it's not easy. It's easy to say. I know it's not easy. It shakes you up but it gives you freedom in the end and that's what you want as the creator."

Great interview. Thanks so much. I absolutely love Sarah's work. I hope she will be teaching a course online soon! Thanks Tara and Sarah, great questions Tara! Sondra Borrie

Thanks for another great interview and all that Judith shared within it! Books: Anne Carson: Autobiography in Red Karl-Ove Knausgård: My Struggle Questions: Every artist must own ...? ... "a notebook" Every artist must believe ...? ... "that there is all the time in the world" Every artist must create ...? ... "from a strong emotion" Every artist must avoid ...? ... "small talk" Every artist must accept ...? ... "defeat and realise that they can start again the next morning"

This is a beautiful and deeply impactful interview. Thank you Judith and Ang! 🙏

Beautiful, beautiful work (-: Marion ❤

Fabulous interview.

Hello you are very talented

Good morning from Hudson Quebec Canada

As always this was an inspiring, gorgeous presentation. I'm so touched and inspired by both of you, Donna and Angela, you feel like kindred spirits, thank you so much for this and for the beautiful course you're offering. The video and talk about the Kurotani Washi studio brought me to tears. When I finished my BFA long ago in 1978 I read in an art magazine about an opportunity to go to Kyoto and do an apprenticeship with one of the eldest master papermakers near there. I believe it was at Kurotani Washi. I was already in love with handmade paper and making it myself with all the things I could find like cattail leaves, and kozo which I of course had to order. I couldn't raise the funds to make the trip and do follow this dream before I married, became a mom etc... but now feel like your course has given me hope to return to that dream, if only in a different format through the course but maybe even return to the dream of visiting there still. Thank you so much!!!

Very nice introduction to Donna Watson and her new class! Sounds amazing!

Hi From beautiful Nelson, BC, Canada

how to sign up for the workshop

Beautiful work , film, and country so inspirational

Hi from sunny and warm North Carolina USA

So inspiring, wow, thank you

Donna, your support and sharing mean so much! Feeling lost or bringing frustration or "what can I start" into your artwork is hard to manage. I love your focus on bring yourself, looking at the world, and sharing what you see! Treasure!

I was transfixed watching the Kurotani Washi film…very soothing! They must have so much pride in what they do.
