Quotography: Harvest


For man, autumn is a time of harvest, 
of gathering together.  
For nature, 
it is a time of sowing, 
of scattering abroad.”

how fortunate for you, Gloria! living in a mobile home park limits one's growing such wonderful crops.

Hi Norma. Happy day to you. In answer to your question as to what drew me to Frida Kahlo-simply her outstanding work. She was one of the best and unfortunately as with most artists their work sells in the megas after they are gone. She did however sell a lot of work on her own while alive. I also remember seeing her paintings on a PBS show many years ago and never forgot her work. I did a lot of research on her and found her to be quite the woman well beyond her time. I am a big fan of hers and am digging out a large canvas to paint my interpretation of her. Hope this answers your question? Have a wonderful day and do take care.

Oh on the comment about your mobile home, grow veggies in pots. That would work. The joy of watching your work come to fruition is out of this world. Take care.

oh I like that quote, I've never thought of it quite like that but it is so true. That is a lovely table decoration. Kelley at the road goes ever ever on

How kind of you to take the time to answer my questions. Now I will expand my knowledge of Frida, having had interest in her sparked sparked by your remarkable art.

I really like the juxtaposition of the two concepts in this quote; gathering together and scattering abroad. Very, very true. Hope you're having a wonderful Autumn.

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o
