WOW! IT'S BEEN WAY TOO LONG SINCE I HAVE POSTED!

MY GOODNESS!!!

'WHERE SHALL I BEGIN?'  OKAY, THAT IS THE FIRST LINE OF 'LOVE STORY' THE SONG...

BUT, AH, ME THINKS LIFE IS MORE THAN JUST A LOVE STORY, AND I HAVE NEVER BELIEVED THE LINE IN THE MOVIE WHICH SAID: "BEING IN LOVE IS NEVER HAVING TO SAY I'M SORRY"...

SAYING I'M SORRY TAKES PASSION, AND HUMBLENESS.  TO LOVE IS DIVINE BUT TO FORGIVE IS FOREVERNESS....

OPHELIA

I DO LIKE FINE ART...AND THE STORY OF OPHELIA IS POIGNANT TO FORGIVENESS.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE I AM GOING WITH THIS LINE OF THOUGHT, MAYBE IT IS JUST TO SHARE SOME PASSIONATE ART! WHICH IS WHAT MY BLOG IS REALLY ALL ABOUT!

A VERY RARE TAPESTRY

I DO LOVE UNICORNS! THOSE ENCHANTING BEASTS OF BEAUTY, WHOSE HORNS BRING HEALING TO THOSE WHO ARE TOUCHED CARESSINGLY BY THEM.


TRISTAN AND ISOLT

MASTERPIECES ABOUT DEATH ALSO INTRIGUE ME. 


AN ANGEL PROTECTING A CHILD FROM A DEMON

I IMAGINE THIS PIECE WOULD BE AMAZING IN FULL COLOR.

Hello Teresa, I found you by way of Deborah's blog. Love your name and header. I enjoyed reading this post entry full of art that drew me. As if the pics were calling out, resonating some of them (I like Waterhouse too!).

You Mom looks very confident and capable for a 16 year old. I imagine at 89 nothing stands in her way. Grace, poise, and beauty - lovely woman. Yeah, I know this younger generation has lost all of the graceful manners, the inclination to follow our patterns of behaviour, but then again, every generation is different and meant to write their own rules.

I'm in Canada where snow is expected in the forecast for tomorrow. Hope you're staying warm and happy in California!
Hugs
