ABOUT The APP Space
​What does it mean to be "a place for Art, Philosophy, and Practice"?
Picture
Several years ago, I began going out to the beach with only my camera, taking a walk and collecting things, creating a picture/sculpture, photographing it, then scattering the pieces.  I called what I created Seaweed Washashores, and I described them as part art, part philosophy, and part practice all about Showing Up, Engaging Fully, and Letting Go.

Over the last couple of years, I've come to use that language to describe not only my work more broadly, but something about my own journey over the last 6 years, and a framework
 for thinking about what we might call an 'authentic' or 'undivided' life.

I've had something of an "AHA!" moment, and it's going to take a bit of time to fully articulate what this all means to me, for me, and perhaps even for you.

For now, this is perhaps what's most important to know:

When I speak of Art, Philosophy, and Practice, I am thinking of  
  • Art as anything we create; anything that exists in a form it did not have before we intervened
  • Philosophy as our beliefs, values, guiding principles, personal paradigm, the way we believe the world works
  • Practice as behavior, what we actually do: how we spend our time, they ways we interact with others, day to day, moment to moment behavior.

What will you find at  
The APP Space: a place for Art, Philosophy, and Practice?
As the new headquarters for JustJillToday,  
you'll always find a wide selection of Jill's original "Words & Images" - from the newest 'Jane & Friends' notecard, to simply framed Gentle Reminders, or perhaps a three dimensional pieces.

And as the headquarters for LINKED thru LEONARD: a movement for world peace - you'll find a large canvas print of Leonard, a map showing all the places one or more person who's LINKED lives, a status report on plans for Phase II of the project, and a large variety of ways you can GET LINKED.

Often you'll find Jill there - working on a custom piece, special project, writing, or preparing for one of the many APP Space activities designed to 
support and encourage
​
  • creativity
  • connection & community
  • compassion, kindness, open-heartedness
  • clear-seeing ​

The APP Space is 
​
A PLACE to 
  • ​laugh
  • learn, and
  • lean into our best selves and our best lives.
  
​
It's a PLACE to 
meet and spend time with people interested in living fully and with deep appreciation for
  • what each of us brings to the literal & proverbial table,
  • the natural world
  • the power of clear seeing.
