One of my online artist friends, Helen Davey, is doing a really cool project this year. A musician and poet, Helen, an Australian living in Switzerland, creates sound paintings based on works of art.
Helen reached out to me to be part of 52 Sound Paintings. Actually, she created a sound painting for The Beauty of Your Life, sending it to me via email. Hearing her song that was inspired by my poem moved me to tears.
Collaborating with other artists is one of the greatest gifts of being an artist. This week, I’m delighted to hear the sound painting that Helen created for my popular Paris painting, Home Away from Home. Helen’s piece is so perfectly right on for the mood and the experience I had.
Our global conversation and connection around our art forms has been so fun. Thank you, Helen!
What an interesting collaboration – such a great musical interpretation for your painting! And I love your poem from September – The Beauty of Your Life. Such a good reminder. Thanks, as always, for your inspiration Cynthia!
Just have to say that the painting brings me back to Paris and Berlin apartment rentals from AirBNB. Which is definitely a good image to keep in the mind when starting the week! Thank you.
