Did you know it is actually still possibly to get a magazine without ads?  An honest to God, really high quality magazine.  This one is the brainchild and love offering of Janine Vangool, a Canadian writer and publisher.

Each themed issue features artists and makers, their work, their processes, their stories.  Even if you don’t think you have a creative bone in your body, it’s juicy fun.

She’s also a publisher, with an on going themed series she calls the Encyclopedia of Inspiration, now numbering 12 volumes.  Yes, I have them all.

If this sounds great, I’ll warn you a subscription isn’t cheap but it is so well worth it, not just for the content but for the idea that you are supporting an artisan, really, whose art is under great pressure and would be a shame to lose.

Consider a subscription a gift to yourself or someone who loves all things human-made (not an affiliate, just a fan).  The image is a link
