He walks where the city forgets to look.
A quiet distance between now and what was.

Yesterday I popped into Manchester Art Gallery and treated myself to a 3 minute audio guided meditation in the mindfulness room. #SlowLooking

This morning, a sparrow landed on the edge of my notebook.
It stayed still for 40 seconds.
I stayed still too.

The Dalby Water Wheel in Union, Washington.

Tucked beneath a canopy of summer green, water fills the moss-covered buckets one by one. Ferns spill from the hillside, and for a moment the only thing left to do is listen.

A museum visit doesn’t need to be productive.

You don’t have to understand every room, photograph everything or read every label.

Sometimes one work is enough.

Excellent article by Tate about 'Slow Looking'. A short, but profound read.

What would happen if instead of 8 seconds, you would look at an artwork for 10 minutes?

Shore Cottage, Kilchoan, Ardnamurchan. Shore Cottage in Kilchoan, a historic building now used by the West Ardnamurchan Jetty Association, has a past tied to the fishing industry and the estate. Originally built around 1840 as model fishermen's cottages, they were refurbished in 1884, including raising floor and roof levels and adding panelling. The cottage is located on the site of a former netsman's bothy, right on the coast, with views of the islands.

Racing stripes.
Depthless eyes.
That tiny gold nugget held between her paws.

Quite often, wonder arrives in very small packages.

A close-up photograph of a chipmunk filling nearly the entire frame. Her brown racing stripes, glossy dark eyes, and delicate black whiskers are sharply visible. She holds a tiny golden piece of corn between her paws. Dry late-summer grasses blur in the background.

Slow looking isn’t just for art—it’s about savoring everyday moments. Truly seeing deepens experiences and enriches life. 🌟 #SlowLooking #Mindfulness #VisualLiteracy

The modern world teaches us to live everywhere and nowhere at once.

A place like this teaches something different:

Know where you are.
Know whose labor sustains you.
Know what season it is.

Be present.

We've been driving through the countryside in Burgundy, France, and I've been using these small sketchbooks to capture what I see from the car window.

In a world that moves quickly, biodiversity asks us to look slowly.

Friday, May 22, is the UN's International Day for Biodiversity. How will you Slow Down and Look Closer?

Are you a slow looker? On average, museum visitors spend 7 seconds looking at a piece of art. I loved looking slowly at "The Garden Parasol" by Frieseke at the NC Museum of Art last week. Notice the brushstrokes. Admire the colors. Slow looking is good for our wellbeing!

The slow curve of the Serein at Noyers-sur-Serein. Just willow light, still water, and that medieval quiet that makes you breathe slower.
