WINDOWS

Green Light in Living Room


Fortune Cookie:  "Beauty in its various forms appeals to you."


Painting with light and perception, each one sees a scene differently.  In an art class, the identical subject and technique is presented, but each student's painting is unique.

"Explore, Dream, Discover," Mark Twain

 

*  "What produces a Dream?" Shirley MacLaine

My memory starts to wander and wonder.


"Window" in French is
 
** "Fenestration" a noun, architecture: "The arrangement of windows and doors on the elevations of buildings."  Various meanings of fenestration include other areas such as botany, zoology, and medicine.

***  Finesterre: the End of the Earth, "unknown land" (name of town in Spain)


 

Close up of Mountain, Sketch by Linda:  
Left:  waterfall, streams of water
Right what is it?


"A magic carpet on a mountain?"

 Can it be like a transparent window cut into the mountain, an "Exit/Enter" portal?
 **** "Blue blue windows behind the stars...."


Magic Window

Dreams, Paintings, Writings, Carvings, Music and More are all Windows into the Beyond~





"A thing of beauty is a joy forever, ...." John Keats
