Giving a man a fish and he will have something to eat for a day; teaching a man to fish and he will have something to eat for a lifetime; giving a man religion and he will die praying for a fish to come to him

Quotation from In The Flesh - Pink Floyd (The Wall)

Love this kind of look that said: "What a hell?"

 

Have a great Thursday my friends :)

Here's a line my dad always uses, he runs a farm and he often hires newcombers that spend more time nagging than working!:

 

‘’Since you people think it's everyone else's problem because you seem to be so perfect... why don't you perfect your own damn country and we'll come over, eh?"

 

“The more I live, the more I learn. The more I learn, the more I realize, the less I know.”

After a long while in the shadowed stream of life, as we live on for half a century or more into adulthood, we keep forgetting that we won't be around for much longer, and by no surprise we cannot get away no matter what happens!

If you truly love someone, let it be known, because very often broken hearts succumb to sadness because of unspoken words.

When everything burns down, love can indeed survive and flame up no matter what...

This image was posted for the 1/30/15 challenge at Digitalmania (www.flickr.com/groups/digitalmania/pool/) to use an affirmative quotation about art in images.

 

Also posted for the Feb 2015 challenge at The Hypothetical Awards (www.flickr.com/groups/1179479@N25/discuss/), theme: Passion for Photography, Love of Art.

 

I used "Art is Life. Life is Art" as my quotation for this image. The quote has been attributed to both Kahlil Gibran and Deiter Rot (or Roth.) Yoko Ono also said, “Art is my life and my life is art.”

 

Regardless of who said it, it has always been one of my favorite art quotations.

 

I used trees as symbols of life and the up-side-down trees as roots that go deep, beyond what is seen with the naked eye. The circle is symbolic of the life cycle. The gradual change from black and white realistic photo to colorful abstract art represents how an artist views the world, not as what is, but what can be.

 

NOTE: I replaced the image with a different version on 2/7/15. I thought the text obliterated some of the more interesting parts of the background and it was bothering me for several days, so I finally changed and reposted it. The image is the same; only the text size & placement has changed.

NOTE:

Most of the above 160 Romanian women, in the best tradition of versatility, are true polymaths and therefore nearly each one of them falls in more than just one category, often three or more. This explains why adding the numbers of the 57 individual categories bears no relation to the actual total of the above 160 women included in Blouse Roumaine.

OK, Folks, the secret is out!

Back in March I submitted my very first piece to my favorite quilting magazine!

There was a "challenge" right up my alley which I couldn't resist . . .

Out of over 100 submissions, 10 were published in a lovely format in the back

of the issue; and today I received the proof via my subscription. Don't think the

mag is on the newsstands yet, but it should be in all the craft stores, plus Border's,

Barnes & Noble and Bam!

 

I was especially excited because this was only the second quilted square I ever made!

 

Here's the letter I sent to the editor with my submission,

which tells a bit about the "Quilting Challenge" . . .

 

As a book artist, calligrapher and writer who has lately caught the quilting bug,

I was immediately inspired by your "Text Me" reader challenge in the

Feb/March 2013 issue of Quilting Arts!

 

So many ideas germinated in my mind weeks before

I could settle on a design!

 

My goal was to incorporate *part* of a poem I wrote about loving the moment

between wet ink on the page and dried thoughts.

 

I also wanted to include the typewriter illustration done by my husband

(with permission, of course), as we coordinate most of our projects.

 

Thus I made a photo transfer from Richard's watercolor,

which I detailed with machine top stitching and a little hand embroidery.

 

I'm passionate about the written word, and very old-fashioned in sending

snail mail art, combining calligraphy with type from my age-old typewriter.

 

Having studied shorthand in college back in the 60's, I'm fascinated

by the new verstion of "texting" but rarely use that means to communicate.

 

While creating, I receive great joy in incorporating "gifts" from friends.

The yellow ribbons were recently given to me by a friend's old collection of Brazilian silk threads,

and are symbolic of the ribbon necessary to transfer letters from the typewriter onto paper.

 

Thanks again for your amazing magazine which has been a source of great inspiration.

 

Of course I must add a quotation to complete this entry:

 

“Your idea of bliss is to wake up on a Monday morning knowing you haven't a single engagement for the entire week.

You are cradled in a white paper cocoon tied up with typewriter ribbon.”

~ Edna Ferber ~

 

Note: If you click on MY WEBSITE you'll see where the typewriter originated!

I came across a few funny and silly Quotations, and I want to share with you.I hope their make you laugh.
