“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

where the path may lead,
go instead
where there is no path,
and leave a trail.”

we scatter the seeds of

doing good, we cultivate
those that belong to humanity.”

I try to say…
You may be given
a load of sour lemons,
why not try to make
a dozen lemon meringue pies?”

Keep it Simple
“I have the simplest tastes.
I am always satisfied
with the best.”
~ Oscar Wilde
Life is a Basket of Cherries
“Most of those
who make collections
of verse or epigram
are like men eating cherries
or oysters: they choose out
the best at first, and
end by eating all.”
~ Nicolas Chamfort
A Rose is a Rose

you will find beauty
everywhere.”

Can You See Me Now?

in a strange town
is one of the pleasantest
sensations in the world.”

Emotion is Key
“The artist is a receptacle
for emotions that come
from all over the place;
from the sky,
from a scrap of paper,
from a passing shape,
from a spider’s web.”
~ Pablo Picasso
