Creating with Reverence: Art, Diversity, Culture and Soul

Creating with Reverence: Art, Diversity, Culture and Soul inspires us to form a dynamic creative foundation and expand our cultural perspectives, through reflections on artists who are committed to life-giving values including; Maria Martinez, a Pueblo potter, the woodworkers of Kyoto, Japan, painters from Australia who honor their Aboriginal ancestry, the weavers of Chiapas, Mexico, DIY and leading contemporary artists. Readers are invited to refine insights on the relation of creativity to a continuity of generations, concepts of time, the significance of beauty, craftsmanship, our daily lives and spiritual well-being. Color illustrations by eminent photographers are interspersed throughout the text.

5"Giving me eyes to see deeply into the extraordinary ordinary"  Jan 27, 2010
By Diane Bridenbecker
This is a rare book for artists of every type. This is a book for the spiritual seeker. The reflective and global-wise references along with color pictures of the weavings and pottery are rich. The questions sprinkled throughout the book open it up for personal and group conversation, reflection and prayer.
Thanks, Claire!
Diane

5Creating with Reverence  Feb 26, 2010
By Connie L. Mallette "Read while U Knit"
As a Master Knitter I found this book meaning filled and inspiring. The spiritual involvement of creating something for someone you love takes on a whole new dimension as you read Claire's writing. You realize you are calling on strength beyond your own regardless of the form your art takes, fiber, color, form or light. The book is beautifully written and reflects the beauty of the soul who wrote it.

5Beautiful book  Nov 22, 2010
By P. Nagler
I think it is fairly rare for an artist, outside of the classroom, to open up their own personal practice for all of us to examine. This beautiful, self-reflective book sets the reader on their own path of reflection. For teachers, students, artists and artisans, anyone who makes and admires handmade things this book is useful to increase awareness about how and why we do what we do.

5Creating With Reverance  Jul 19, 2010
By Darla Masterson
Claire Campbell Park's book,'Creating With Reverance' is stunning! It dives deeply into the heart of the reader and into the heart of creativity. With clear examples of work by various artists from many parts of the world, she searches for chords of truth, honesty, and beauty with unifying ingrediants of attention and devotion. There is no trace of affectation, only the pure voice of faith coming from deep within a soul.
