"if i had my life to live over, i would start barefoot earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall. i would go to more dances. i would ride more merry-go-rounds. i would pick more daisies"
One of the philosophies I live by --except for the dances--I will ride a merry-go-round at any opportunity, especially the animals that go up and down! If you ever get to Bristol, CT, look up the New England Carousel Museum. It's a wonderful place to wander and photograph, full of original carousel pieces from the golden age to now!
I adore this tryptic very much Beth! Full of splendid colors and spirit! Bravo my friend! :) (About my post, to answer your question, Pat's drawn it and I 've put the colors behind)
...and I would turn the music up loud, light more fireworks, eat more ice cream and lay on the grass at night and watch stars...a triple play just fabulous Beth!
Beautiful work! Is it all digital?
ReplyDeletethank you! yes it is all digital.
