“I have a fear of
things growing on things.
I don’t know where it came from.
But I go hiking a lot,
and sometimes I can’t handle
moss growing on trees or
tumors on trees or
mushrooms.”
~ Lara Jean Chorostecki
“There are infinite shadings
of light and shadows and colors…
it’s an extraordinarily subtle language.
Figuring out how to speak
that language is
a lifetime job.”
~ Conrad Hall
“Always do your best.
What you plant now,
you will harvest later.”

“It was in the 1920s,
when nobody had time to reflect,
that I saw a still-life painting
with a flower
that was perfectly exquisite,
but so small you really
could not appreciate it.”
~ Georgia O’Keeffe
“If you truly love nature,
you will find beauty
everywhere.”
~ Vincent Van Gogh
Art lovers will appreciate the magnificent view nestled along the harbor in Gloucester, Massachusetts. To stumble upon the existence of Rocky Neck Art Colony while exploring the peninsula is like discovering a treasure trove of history around every bend. While walking in the midst of the cultural community, a feeling of déjà vu is overwhelming. How can it be? To feel convinced of such an illusion that one has previously experienced such an encounter is mind-boggling. Perhaps it reminded me of the south of France, or the iris-laden paths of Monet’s Giverny. Quaint workshops, artist studios, galleries, and restaurants dot the inlet with American Impressionism en plein-air. To every art lover out there, make a note to add this unique art colony to your list of “must sees”.
“A single rose can be
my garden…
a single friend,
my world.”
