“We Sit shares a beautiful journey into the
great matter of life and death. It brings a bright light
to bear on the inner experience of anyone considering
these matters. I join Marley and Geri in this
inquiry with a sincere sense of depth and warmth.”

I feel looking at it.”

offers its own meditation. Even the poems’ shapes tell
stories. It’s only right to slow down and pay attention.
I savored each painting and poem multiple times.”
—Shannon Pennefeather Gardner, Editor

The new book, Letters to Isabella, presents 77 egg tempera paintings by American artist Marley Kaul. A letter to his granddaughter accompanies each painting, offering an intimate look at the artistic process and the personal and professional influences reflected in his work.
- "Marley Kaul is a contemporary egg tempera master... His work in both content and energy emphasizes his connection with natural forms and poetic metaphor." - “Marley Kaul has taken a unique approach to the identity issue─theme and critique─central to contemporary art since the nineties. He has pierced a hole in the blatant, strident, political side of “identity” and has brought us personally home to a place of the heart. Through his stewardship of his rural land and knowledge of plants and animals he has offered metaphors about the principled practice of art and life and the changing aspects of growing and seeing.”
