    Instagram

    I'm currently posting art and photography on Instagram and wondered if any other members also use Insta? If you want to connect you can find me here https://www.instagram.com/francescaperrycarboni/

    My main photography project is borrowed from something that was going around last year on social media - I'm documenting my life by posting a photo each day, the original idea was for a week, I've decided to attempt an entire year. All of the photos are without comment or explanation and are in black and white.

    Most of the rest of what I do has come out of a connection to a wonderful woman, Wendy Ann Greenhalgh, who teaches how to use mindfulness and the breath to connect to inner creativity, which she believes we all have. She embraces all forms of mark making, as well as writing and photography. Don't be put off by the mindfulness tag, I know it's an overused buzzword for just about anything at the moment, but Wendy Ann, a Buddhist practitioner for many years, really understands her subject and how to get others to engage with it. She's also written two fabulous books. Her website can be found here https://www.artofmindfulness.org.uk/

    I especially recommend her to anyone who feels they would like some kind of creative activity but doesn't know where to start or feels intimidated. Don't be afraid, let go and jump right in.

    Greetings all,

    I have followed almost all of you, except few instances of unavailable usernames.

    My handle on all social networks is @buddhaletina - funny thing about it. I've put the word Buddha in word "budaletina".

    Now, that word can be translated as great fool, literally, but in Bosnian it can also imply that someone's being good, yet silly, or good beyond his own interests. So, basically, being good beyond your own interests is kinda like bodhisattvas, right? So it's multidimensional and definitely available username in all the networks I've wanted to be at.

    Feel free to add me. Please note that on the 1st of the month I tend to archive all the posts from the previous month. I'm a supporter of digital minimalism as well and I tend not to connect way too strongly to any digital profile. Sometimes I just disappear as well

    Thank you, Meitou! I'm glad you like it. I'm not really into social media that much, so I tend to archive stuff each month, but I'm setting up proper gallery at my blog right now. Soon, the drawings will be available!
