This is a special stand-alone bonus episode featuring the the inspiring Australian artist, educator and author Maryanne Moodie who’s woven art graces the cover of the Collected Strands album Volume 1, which is being celebrated in the main episode connected to this one. I decided to release this stand-alone bonus for those listeners who are passionate about weaving and want to dive into the interview with Maryanne right away, but I have included a clip of our improvisation Solace as part of this episode, and you will find all the links in the description of this episode to listen to this music, and of course the links to Maryanne Moodie’s art, workshops, and books in the show notes as well. I feel that all my listeners who love music and creativity will find that Maryanne’s personal journey and perspectives will resonate strongly with them, and I hope some listeners in the weaving and art world will also be inspired by the musicians!
