Dive into the art of wonder-walking with ‘An Explorer’s Journal’ by Amy T. Won. A guide brimming with creativity and nature.
Are you like me, a wide-eyed, wonder-seeking old soul, part woodland nymph, part world explorer? If so, I’m grateful our paths crossed; we must be kindred spirits!Do you remember the first time you saw an octopus in an aquarium? All twisty arms, shifting colors, and fluid body? Or the last time you took a moonlit walk, gushing over moon shadows and awestruck by the silent huntress owl?There’s never been a more important time to savor such wonderment and nurture the inquisitive, explorer child in all of us. I deeply feel the loss of old-fashioned play and wonder, mourn the passing of the age of discovery, and lament how technology has lulled us into imagined but not quite lived adventures.As an artist and storyteller, I ask a simple question: How would our lives change if we reconnected to the visceral, physical, and natural around us? If we reclaimed what truly matters in our lives?To all explorer hearts aching for the unknown, sail with me on a wonder-filled journey of re-embracing our humanity, our wildness, our very essence of aliveness. It’s what makes our lives rich, creative, and most of all, meaningful.My journey as an artist truly began with The TreeSpace Studio over 6 years ago. After being in a creative desert for almost a decade, I dreamed of a mythical place to contain my artistic explorations. Inspired by one of my favorite childhood stories, The Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton, where magical lands appear atop this otherworldly tree deep in an enchanted forest for its folk to explore. I believed that the studio was my very own Faraway Tree, a link to all the splendor of my imagination and the wonders of our world, and a constant reminder for me to stay enchanted.It grew to become a magical link to the visual dreams of everyone I’ve been blessed to collaborate with, and today the studio stands for the importance of being explorers, for not living vicariously, for choosing our own adventures so that we can be creative pioneers, innovative peoples, and thought leaders that usher society into new eras.Whether it’s through the art I create or the labyrinthine explorations I’m guiding, I hope they’ll inspire you to wonder-filled adventures that sharpen your own senses, fuel your aliveness, and renew your enchantment with life. And when you reach that place of overflow, who knows what magic awaits?
