When the swirling colors flow, a peaceful ghost emerges, reminding me that even in turbulent times, we can find our center. I hope "Drifting" inspires you to embrace tranquility and navigate through the chaos with grace. #blueskyartistsunite #artsky #blueskyart #OnlyBeautifulThings anniewood.com

"In times of dread, artists must never remain silent. This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That's how civilizations heal." Tony Morrison #photography #ir #bnw #artists #art

My lovely friend was also in the NY Times today. Not the kind of coverage any artist ever wants. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/01/10/a...

Hello, beautiful Blue Skyers! 🦋 Here's something I wrote about the only guru I ever needed. Maude from Harold and Maude. #movies open.substack.com/pub/anniewoo...

When women wrote, directed, starred, and edited their own film...in 1936. Left to right: Film editor Viola Lawrence, star Rosalind Russell, screenwriter Mary C. McCall Jr., and director Dorothy Arzner on the set of "Craig's Wife" (never released on DVD). #filmsky #hollywood

i'm honored to have received all this love for my documentary short film about my dad, Dad's Frenemy. (happy to report, we changed his meds and his so much better now. and he's 100 years old!) you can watch it here: vimeo.com/711453038?sh... #dementia #indiefilmmaker #jwc #wga #writer #artist

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” - James Baldwin

Doreen Carwithen, born #OTD in 1922, was one of the first women in Britain to score a full-length movie. She was a fascinating, complicated person who wrote rich and romantic music. Here's her Piano Concerto: open.spotify.com/track/4tPCV5... & you can read more in Quartet: linktr.ee/leahbroadwri...

...and when we turned to go a flock of small birds flew scattered by the fright of our sudden moving and disappeared: hard sea pebbles thrown solid for an instant against the sky flight of words ~Margaret Atwood
