Re-Creative: A podcast about inspiration and creativity

In this episode of Re-Creative, hosts Joe and Mark talk about author and filmmaker Susan Rodgers' inspiration, the oil painting Setting Day, by award winning artist and restaurateur Scott O'Neil. And as usual the conversation just goes on from there, with at least one stunning revelation: just exactly who Susan's related to.

Sherry Ramsey and The Traveler

1 Recommendations

Cape Breton speculative fiction writer Sherry D. Ramsey joins Mark and Joe to discuss a painting that has been “lost” to her, The Traveler.

She originally saw the work in 2004 at the Nova Scotia Museum of Natural History, in a show called Five Crows Silver. But she was never able to track down the artist.

The painting stuck with her, though, and it inspired her to write The Seventh Crow, in which one of the characters is actually called The Traveler!

Joe, Mark and Sherry have a fascinating discussion about corvids, including the mythological implications of crows and ravens in many cultures.
