Beyond Words
Symbolism is a powerful literary and artistic device used to convey deeper meanings and messages through the use of symbols, which are objects, actions, or concepts that represent something beyond their literal definition. The primary purpose of using symbols is to represent abstract concepts, themes, or ideas that may be difficult to convey directly through words. By attaching symbolic meaning to something concrete, writers can convey complex ideas in a more accessible and engaging manner.

Unlocking the Magic of Metaphors.
Metaphors as Powerful Tools. In literature, a metaphor is a literary device used by writers to create vivid and imaginative comparisons between two things that may initially seem unrelated. It's a way of expressing a complex idea or image by likening it to something more familiar. Think of it as a shortcut for the writer to convey a deeper meaning or emotion in a more engaging way.

Beauty That Doesn’t Translate on Film
This article is about beautiful things that we can’t seem to capture right on camera. It’s about the amount of intentionality that goes into creating the perfect photo. Of views. Of ourselves. It’s about the unhealthy attachments we have to ‘angles’ and the need for validation from the rest of the world. We think it looks good but, does it really count if others don’t? It’s a reminder that we can see beauty in everything and it is subjective. It’s about seeing the world as it is. There is room for creativity and altering here and there but, don’t ever forget that you’re all of that. And then some more. You are beautiful; even when the camera doesn’t agree with you. And so is that one lizard creeping along the sidewalk.

Art for our sake: six
A little break since edition five. Sorry 'bout that but been doing some art appreciation at Tate Modern, Tate Britain, and the Mall Gallery among others. Always so much to see in London and never enough time to see it all. At Tate Modern I met some lovely people too, from the UK, Europe and around the world, many from various US states. One family were visiting London from Washington D.C., reminding me of a wonderful but brief visit to the National Gallery Of Art some 30 years ago. There I also had a chance to take a look around the National Museum of Women in the Arts, then still in its early days. The featured image is of a portrait by the American impressionist Lilla Cabot Perry. A picture that is forever etched in my memory as I bought a poster copy which kept me company on the wall of my home business office for a number of years.
