Bobbi Vandervort: Through My Eyes
I am a writer/artist/singer/songwriter and my site is most inspirational when all of these elements are involved. The heart of the site is my book, “Through My Eyes,” a series of essays celebrating creativity and the creative spirit. Each chapter borrows its theme from one of my songs, which you will hear when the chapter is selected. Ideally, if you listen to the song before reading, the experience will be deepened. Each art piece also supports the subject matter.
