Virtual Art in the A.M.
A Performance of Songs, Stories & Paintings
Art in the A.M. is a monthly performance featuring visual artists, RBWG writers, and songs by musician Stuart Vining. While we are not meeting face-to-face during the pandemic, we invite you to participate in the virtual edition. As with our original Art in the A.M., we will look for eight writers each month to use that month's artwork as inspiration for prose or poetry (250-word limit). Scroll down for previous months' editions.

Phragmites by Faith Lord
"This painting is from a picture I took of cut phragmites laying in the marsh. I liked the many subtle colors in the water that played around the reed pieces. It was also a challenge for me to create a piece using just neutrals because usually, my work screams color.
"It is now one of my favorite paintings."
—Faith Lord

RBWG Members Writings
Inspired By Faith Lord's Painting
When members signed up to write for this project, they had Faith Lord's painting for inspiration. They did not know the name of the painting, Faith's theme, or the song Stuart would sing. This is what Art in the A.M. is about: writers, visual artists, and our musician, Stuart Vining, each presenting their interpretation of a prompt.
