Sips of Inspiration: an Interview with Laura Bray
Today’s Sips of Inspiration chat is with Laura Bray.
Laura is an artist and writer living in the Pacific Northwest.
My friend Dana introduced me to her work and I was enchanted.
I’m so glad I reached out to her and began to forge a friendship. Don’t be shy, friends! Reach out to people whose work resonates with you!
I was delighted to discover that Laura is a blogger. I still dream of a blogging comeback and a return to a wide and supportive blogging community. Many of the blogs I used to read no longer exist and I know there are many out there now just waiting for me (and you) to find them.
One of the things I love about Laura’s work is how unexpected and interesting her pieces are. These worry dolls, for example take me back to my childhood creative play.
I hope you enjoy our conversation!
Laura is now focused on her writing. Find her on Substack.
