Of One Mind

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Through her forthright and open yearning to understand the mysteries of the Mind, Stedman articulates our own deep seeking. Her probing questions prod us into curiosity and consternation. Her answers startle and delight. Put together with its structural bones she gives us a clear picture of the creative process in non-classical poetic verse that flows and snags and flows again through life and death to life again. Chapters include Automatic Writing, Channeling, and Living by Grace. This is the first book of Myrtle Stedman's Universal Mind trilogy. The other two are "Of Things to Come" and "The Way Things Are or Could Be." * ** * * Myrtle Stedman was a member of PEN New Mexico, a branch of PEN Center USA West of International PEN and believed that there is no end to what the mind can do with the eye and hand, in time and in spirit. She is also the author of "Artists in Adobe," "Adobe Architecture," "Adobe Remodeling and Fireplaces," "A House Not Made with Hands," "Of Things to Come," "Ongoing Life," "Rural Architecture," "The Ups and Downs of Living Alone in Later Life," and "The Way Things Are or Could Be," all from Sunstone Press.

Autorenporträt

Myrtle Stedman was known as an "Artist in Adobe," designing, building, and remodeling adobe homes under a contractor's license. She was also a well-known artist whose academic training started in 1927 when she was a student in the Houston Museum of Fine Arts school. Her English born husband, Wilfred Stedman, whose background was in architecture as well as in painting and illustrating was recognized as one of the most outstanding artists of the American Southwest. Adobe architecture in New Mexico was one of Wilfred's favorite topics of conversation and Myrtle was instilled with the love of adobes from the moment they were married. After his death in 1950, Myrtle went on to become one of the foremost authorities on adobe construction.
