Debbie Wagner, a brain tumour survivor, has been painting the sunrise nearly every day since 2005. She continues this practice in gratitude for waking up one more day. Looking to the morning sky is a powerful way to start the day, showing all of us how the sky touches each one of us!

‘Cumulus’ or simply ‘Cloud’

Joanna Thede, Member 66,865 recently joined the Society and works as a visual artist. Her latest work is called ‘Cumulus’ or simply ‘Cloud’ and was installed outside and lit during darkness in November 2025 in Helsingborg in Sweden.

The description of her work explains, “Cumulus” is a work consisting of 40 kilometers of crocheted fishing line. In Joanna Thede’s work there is often a wordless communication where the beautiful and slow take their place, similar to light phenomena in nature that constantly change and at the same time recur in seasonal and daily rhythms. “Cumulus” is about learning to float with the winds and to rise above the current ground conditions, similar to the Swedish poet Karin Boye’s third verse in the poem Clouds:

“Would it be granted to me that with festive pride like these
could lift me up, where the hustle and bustle of the worlds does not reach
and no matter how angry the roar of the storms goes around me
wear the golden wreath of the sun’s shimmer around my head..”

Joanna Thede has exhibited in several European countries such as Sweden, Denmark, Ireland, Scotland, Hungary, Lituania and Latvia among others. She has made several public outdoor art works and received art grants such as from the Art Council of Sweden and Malmö Art Museum.

Clouds Over San Francisco Bay

Afsaneh A Michaels, member 45450, seeks to convey the poetry of nature in its grand displays in the sky as cloud formations: each cloud expressing the atmosphere’s moods like a person’s feelings. She recently shared this example showing the clouds over San Francisco Bay.
