Where the Inspiration Comes From - with e bond (Part 2)

And the idea of cultivating disinterest to maintain focus

Episode 081

In Part 2 of my convo with book artist and fabric designer e bond, we delved into where you look for inspiration. e brought a lot of her book making and painting skills to her first fabric designs, and subsequent lines relate back to this in an on-going story.

We also talk about what can be inspiration, and it’s not necessarily other art. e is a huge reader, and many of the books she reads turn into art ideas. I loved the great sense of art being threaded through all aspects of her life, and honestly, find myself needing to do a bit more of that in mine!
