oh so incredibly true... because art is life and life is art... and you express both so incredibly beautifully...

A quietude of place and thought that knows not how to dissemble.

I really like the style you have shown lately with cutout art. I think I may make my Christmas cards using the same theme this year.

Lucky you! I wish I could have gone too....I would recognize that hand/bird artwork anywhere ; )

"Quiet moments of life art happen everyday" ... but I'm not always quiet enough to see it ... your blog helps because it takes me into a different way of seeing the world ... less structured and more creative than mine ... thanks

Caroline said...

Simply wonderful...love the world through your eyes.

This is gorgeous - I just posted on Life and Art yesterday - but with my kids during school holidays. Thought my art had to take a back seat but then reasoned that 'Life is Art' so who cares whether mine or kiddies. Lovely post. Happy to have stumbled across you...

I love the way you present the things in life that you see - it is art, in and of itself.
