Today, artist Joshua Holmes is secure in Christ, at peace with His timing, eager to create, and ready to overcome any life obstacle. In thirty-eight years, he faced a myriad of struggles, however, before arriving at a place of acceptance. Born a fighter, from day one he defied misdiagnoses, cerebral palsy, and epilepsy. After brain surgery, against all odds he adjusted to new acquired disabilities, including visual and sensory deficits. He acknowledged stigma, embraced failure, set creative goals, and discovered his place in the world. An academic and professional, he later persisted after repeated seizures in the classroom and workplace, and navigated the disarray they left behind. With faith and endurance, he trusted God to lead him through three different colleges and into a rewarding freelance career. In this remarkable autobiography, Joshua Holmes paints a stellar picture. He recounts a life of trial, accomplishment, survival, and blessing. Introspective, informative, fast-paced, and filled with irony, Painting the Whole Picture is a harrowing tale you won't want to put down.

A Practical Psychoanalytic Guide to Reflexive Research offers an accessible guide to enriched qualitative research. In this novel approach, the researcher’s feelings and empathy in relation to participants take centre stage, leading to fresh, exciting and usable research findings. The psychoanalytic concept of reverie refers to those startling and unexpected images, feelings and daydreams which can come to mind as we interact with other people in the world. Qualitative research involves interacting with human subjects, and the book shows how uncanny or troubling reverie experiences can be turned to good use by being linked back to deeper research questions and hypotheses. Joshua Holmes critically explores the role of self-reflection (reflexivity) in psychoanalysis and qualitative research. Practical guidance is offered while planning research; conducting research interviews; analysing interview data; teaching methods which foster the capacity for reverie; and in relation to research groups. Examples are given throughout, including the author’s own missteps along the way, in which he shares the importance of learning from experience. The book breathes life into research processes offering much-needed clinical relevance. The method moves away from one-size-fits all, formulaic research procedures and brings tenor, colour and texture into the research process, to create vivid, real-life meaningful findings. A Practical Psychoanalytic Guide to Reflexive Research will be essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate qualitative researchers wishing to enhance their reflexive practice, while psychotherapists and psychoanalysts will find a genuinely psychoanalytic research method, where their clinical skills become vital capacities rather than an awkward hindrance.

Do not fear the darkening skies of the coming stormDon't cower in the boat that keeps us from seeing HimInstead stand firm Keep looking up even in pouring rainThe rainbow is always there, but is forgotten like FaithThat we fail to use until we're desperate for a miracle Action like friction in storms are needed to waken us
