New Release: Letters to the Muse — A Book by Toni Cogdell
We are delighted to announce that artist Toni Cogdell has released her first book, Letters to the Muse — a project that marks a new and deeply personal chapter in her creative practice, and she has kindly offered a free copy to any Oil Art Advisory client who purchases one of her original paintings.
We'll get Toni to ship you a brand new copy of "Letters to the Muse" upon purchase.
Although she has never felt drawn to producing prints of her work, the idea of a book resonated immediately. “I love books,” she says, “and it feels like a different kind of offering, one that’s much more me.” The result is a publication that beautifully reflects this sentiment: tactile, intimate, and thoughtfully crafted.
Letters to the Muse blends the sensory warmth of a poetry collection with the visual clarity of an art book. Within its pages, readers will find a coming together of the two elements that have always shaped her artistic voice — painting and writing — inseparable, intertwined, and equally essential.
The book offers a candid journey through the creative process, inviting readers into the quiet, complex space where inspiration and everyday life meet. Through reflective prose and evocative imagery, Toni Cogdell explores what it feels like to follow the Muse’s siren call while also navigating the realities of being human.
We are proud to celebrate this new milestone with her.
