Thanks, Sonja. I'm delighted you're here and I've just read your post about the painting 'Interior Light' by Carl Holsøe. I didn't know this artist and I love the example you show us. For me, 'place' is about interiors just as much as it is about exteriors, and 'place writing' can cover the real and the portrayed. I look forward to chatting with you more!

The Hearth 2 image is so vibrant with its realism of an ordinary kitchen sink. I can smell it as much as taste it.

It's an amazing image, Jill, evoking many emotions in me and certainly sparking the senses. I could have written a much longer piece about this photograph but decided to keep it short for Substack readers as this length of post seems to work well.

Visiting a gallery is a cool and creative writing prompt. I'm happy you didn't post a photo in this space - the lack of a visual strengthened your writing...

Thank you, Jack. I love going to galleries.

And I'm interested to know your thoughts about the visual so I appreciate your comment.
