A Canadian magazine that I subscribe to is Uppercase. It’s so inspiring and a beautiful well crafted magazine. Thanks for the book reviews. I’ll have to order the Forest one

Yes, I love Uppercase! I do have a few issues of that as well. Thanks for the reminder. Maybe I will mention it in the next book video so others can check it out. ☺️
Loved the magazine "Where Women Create", had not heard of that before - thank you for showing.

@@michellejozina by bun is her channel name, she inspired me to start doing mixed media collage.Shes doing a haunted house oracle deck for october. Oracle and tarot decks do great on kickstarter. I would love to see an oracle by you. This book The Oracle Creator: The Modern Guide to Creating an Oracle or Tarot Deck is very inspiring too

I’m in Hamilton, Ontario. Aren’t these magazines so inspiring! I think you should be able to get them at Indigo or Michael’s. I might have gotten some at Walmart but they don’t carry them on a regular basis. I hope you can find some!
lookin for something good with the word "Empathy"
Imagine A Forest is based on eastern European folk art, it's not scandinavian. The artist author is from Uzbekistan. There are a lot of similarities but her art is based on art and stories from her family and culture.

You are right! Thanks for the correction. 😊 I knew this but I don’t know why I said Scandinavian. I do love all folk type art and my brain always defaults to that. I definitely do not want to take away from the heritage of the artists beautiful work. Thanks! ❤️

Her style is a very Soviet based of. It is not Scandinavian. Although the Northern nature is very similar. I think she is Russian.
