listen to Salvador ....

"Be mad."

(Salvador Dali)

a gem for today ...

Picasso said,

"In order to be a painter,
you need to know how to paint,
and when to stop."

Lots of Birthdays this week!

Happy Birthday.
You all know who you are.

i have just found an
unfinished knitting project.
Lovely wool socks
(well, one unfinished sock ... in the singular, for now)
made with wool from Germany.

get your pencils out

"There is nothing so delightful as drawing."

Vincent Van Gogh

mmmm...

time for something to eat,
something to drink.
and a little trip in the car
with the Knitting Companion
to find nourishment is always good.
He might not look thrilled about
his car trips, but he enjoys the sights
and smells and the travelling naps.

tuesday quote

"You can never do too much drawing."

Tintoretto

Quote for the new week

"Be not too hasty
either with praise or blame;
speak always as though
you were giving evidence
before the judgement-seat of the Gods."


Seneca


and in real and
domestic life: the Knitting Companion
and i have a mountain of laundry.
How does this happen?
