Ongoing Life, A Universe of Mind

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this collection of the author's most personal thoughts and experiences, both real and imagined, she examines her own belief systems, family problems, advancing years, triumphs, and blends them into loose flowing poetry which laughs and cries to be read. Readers will find much of themselves in this timely book. The author says, "First and foremost I acknowledge the Mind as the creator and the substance of that which it creates. We couldn't even imagine a universe or anything in it without the Mind. It is the Mind that expresses itself and conceives that which it expresses. It is this male and female that is the basis for the production of all that exists. It is to the Mind and in the spirit of its contemplation that I attribute the end resolves of family and all life situations which enter into ongoing life today and into life beyond the grave, never dying, never forgetting." * * * * * 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," "Artists in Adobe," "House Not Made with Hands," "Of One Mind," "Of Things to Come, "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.
