"two lips"

Out of the dark, confinement! out from behind the screen!
It is useless to protest, I know all and expose it.

feeling a little pink & green...





I went to the market yesterday , to get my basic stuff...fruit, half&half, veggies, bread...well...the veggies were looking quite beautiful...and so of course i decided to shoot before consuming them...enjoy the lovely images...I think this life style of living alone is catching up with me....no one to answer to can really get the creative juices flowing...Have a sunny day!!

Monet...the man

"sometimes I stop, stunned suddenly to
discover dazzling things the existance of
which I never suspected."
~Monet


today, will be full of creative doings, if that is a word. My mind is full...I almost have to write everything down, so I can organize it...but in the past if I write ..it losses the magic...I will continue to just go on a whim and allow my soul to guide me...oh, that's my new image
"ethereal" the one word project for shuttersisters.

~Tolstoi


from the book {Truth and Reality} Otto Rank
I just finished Ch.1 it's quite a hard read, but it is so worth it, for what it gives me, in
my inside life...have a most wonderful weekend.
