So sad to hear of the death of Bonnie Greer, novelist, broadcaster and hugely inspiration woman. She was a great supporter of this Womensart project & WA books and our chats will be cherished always. A true intellectual & beautiful person. RIP xx

It was one of the great joys of my recent life to know Bonnie Greer. A truly remarkable person who radiated such wisdom and intellect. And when she spoke the audience was rapt. A kind, generous, passionate and very funny human. Thank you for giving us you Bonnie. www.theguardian.com/books/2026/s...

I have had some great teachers in this life, and she was the one who taught me what I could call the survival techniques to being a writer. I wouldn't have made it this far without her. I'm grateful to her, for her. Rest in peace, Annie.

Feels great to be getting back into a painting groove with some new monochromatic pieces, including this new one! Tisha Mark ©2026, Untethered, oil on linen, 20"x16" This one-of-a-kind original seascape painting is available: tishamark.com/product/unte... #art #painting #SciArt #TraditionalArt
Original seascape oil painting by Tisha Mark, "Untethered" oil on stretched linen canvas, 20"x16" (2026). This atmospheric seascape painting is monochromatic (black & white) and vertically oriented. It has a diagonal coastline with the sea on the left meeting a shore on the right. There is much texture throughout the painting, and there are moody cloud formations in the sky as sunlight is rising or setting far off on the horizon.

Photographie en noir et blanc prise au ras du sol à la Vallée des Saints, à Carnoët, en Bretagne. Deux statues monumentales de granit dominent le premier plan, tournées vers un ciel lourd et orageux. D’autres silhouettes sculptées se dispersent sur la colline, parmi les herbes floues.

This artwork is titled "The Lovers" (also shared under titles like "Lovers and Moon") by the Ukrainian-Canadian-Mexican artist Andrew Osta. 

Painted in oil on canvas, this piece is a prime example of his signature "subjective surrealism" and folk-art style.

I am often asked “What, if push came to shove, is your favourite stile you have ever climbed over on a walk in the countryside?” and it’s always an easy question to answer, since there can only ever be one winner.
A stile in the middle of a field, surrounded by no fence of hedge, which, when you climb it, takes you to a nicer parallel dimension, containing no algorithms.
