I’m grateful that Grace has introduced we Real Toads to the hopeful, beautiful art of Lisa Graham.
I love "remember(ing) (my) extraordinary superstar days." I'm not sure how much hope is built up but it helps me forget my lagging times of today.
ReplyDeleteVery nice inspired writing, Marian. Those wheels in Lisa's picture reminded me of the Russian artisan, T. Borris Adveyev, who designed the metallic looking Olympic emblem for this years Winter Olympic Games. He died just today (or last evening).

I love this..
ReplyDeleteEvery time now is a good time ~ Enjoying the spunk in your word ~ Thanks for writing to the Sunday's Challenge Marian ~ Wishing you happy and blessed week, smiles ~
ReplyDeleteDunno if the speaker's back on her meds, or that the three figures in the painting know that the wheel turns as it must, affording someone else their superstar moment--but been there, amenned that.
ReplyDeleteKnee-falling and begging blessings? I don't think so!
ReplyDeleteAmen, sister! Someone has to tell it like it is.
ReplyDeleteThis is entirely awesome.
ReplyDeleteI guess. Just in case. (Great!)
