{"product_id":"9780993923029","title":"summer to summer rewind!: 366 poems twelve artists","description":"\u003cbr\u003eRania M M Watts, a poet who relishes anything and everything related to the word 'art' decided in late June of 2015; that she would require a bit of a distraction during an exceptionally long summer holidays. She thought it would be prudent to dive into a poetry venture based on her favourite Visual Artists. Although her list morphed throughout the year she always maintained to stay not only true to herself but; also honour the Artists work as best as she could via the medium of poetry. This chapbook chronicles Rania's journey through her self-imposed poetry challenge, not only steeped in emotion but quality as well. There are no cookie cutter pieces in this book for sure... \u003cp\u003eThe twelve mixed media Artists who are responsible for a years worth of inspiration include: Rebecca Belmore ~ Inter-Disciplinary Artist, Stephanie Vovas ~ Photographer, Marcelo Suaznabar ~ Visual Artist\/Painter, Caroline Elizabeth Greene ~ Painter, Pamela Edmonds ~ Curator, Charlotte Blanchard ~ Graphic Designer, Danielle Krysa ~ Collage Artist, Megan Morgan ~ Photographer, Horace Panter ~ Icon Inspired Painter\/Musician, Kiki Monstress ~ Make-Up Artist, Bekky Beukes ~ Artist\/Painter and Amylee ~
