✨ Welcome to the Chronicles

Hello, I’m Vera — an artist, wanderer, and chronic cozy-maker now living by the sea in Spain.

I write Chronicles from Afar as a slow dispatch from my creative life: art-making, reflective living, sketchbook pages, seaside walks, bookish thoughts, and the quiet magic of noticing the world more deeply. My field of interest is broad — I follow curiosity wherever it leads, from moss and mythology to pigment and history.

Over the years, I’ve worked as a book art director, letterer, calligrapher, photographer, and filmmaker. I’m also an immigrant and a parent, and these roles shape the way I see the world — and the way I write about it.

This is a free newsletter, always will be. I write to feel connected — to myself, to art, to the natural world, and to kindred spirits like you.

📬 New letters arrive monthly (sometimes more often).
