And Have You Noticed-
Another theme running through my paintings?
I never determined it to be so.
But there they are
-
A constant pleasure of my heart
-
A collected item that adorns my studio,
the bedrooms, my closet, fills a box in the garage,
and often is on my own head
especially at tea parties and luncheons
(too few these past couple of years)
-
and so many would be wonderful for Easter morning
at church with a flowery dress and my new apple-green shoes.
-
But I would be the only lady in a hat
and I don't want to be a spectacle

... So ~ Girlfriends ...

my birthday is coming up and we're going to all wear
