| 1 | Far from Fearless: A Collection of Essay | Rebecca K. O'Connor |
| Beautifully illustrated and deriving inspiration from nature, Far from Fearless explores the pitfalls, perils, and joys of creativity. Whether struggling with beginnings, self-doubt, unexpected setbacks, or finding the courage to embrace possibilities, each essay delves into the creative process with heartfelt honesty, humor, and encouragement. Every year, Rebecca K. O’Connor gives her friends a homemade present on her birthday. The time spent planning, crafting, and mailing friends something special has become a meditation on the amazing people in her life and how wonderful it is to have another year with them. For her 50th birthday, she wanted to do something special. Far from Fearless is this gift, a collection of micro-essays and pencil drawings on plant prints. It is the culmination of a year she spent sending a weekly essay by email, a year of learning to create prints from the leaves in her neighborhood, and art drawn from the photographs of nature she has taken on morning walks on her prints. The essays explore the struggles, and joys of embracing an “artist’s journey” with an overarching message to persevere and to find your joy. |
