For the first half of her life Ginger has expressed her nature through her family, marriage and the caring of their four children. She studied for eight years with the English Visionary Artist, Cecil Collins in London.  He inspired his students to touch the essence of life and then allow one's own uniqueness to create the form or drawing that would capture its treasured quality.” Now she is inspired to be ‘the soul of the artist’ bringing forth artwork which speaks to us of things that touch our hearts nearly forgotten  -  Beauty, Peace, Kindness. Ginger says, “My journey to discover my true nature has led me to visit many places within myself. I feel my work is a reflection of some of these places often we share on Life’s journey.” Ginger has written a memoir called 'The Bright Side of the Moon' - "a true story of my life and how I was challenged, survived and resurrected like the fabled tale of the phoenix rising out of the ashes on a journey with a band they call Pink Floyd and then beyond."You can view a brief slideshow of some of Ginger's work here: https://youtu.be/U-B14uZ3AS8https://www.gingergilmour.co.uk/https://goldensufi.org/gsc_authors/irina-tweedie/Chloë Goodchild is an international singer, innovatory educator, author and founder of The Naked Voice (1990) and its UK Charitable Foundation (2004), dedicated to the realization of compassionate communication in all realms of human life.
