October's Bookish Art...

 
Rose Mead -- Molly Reading, 1920

"...we gravitate toward the stories we need in life. Whatever we are longing for--adventure, excitement, emotion, connection--we turn to stories that help us find it. Whatever questions we're struggling with--sometimes questions so deep, we don't even really know we're asking them--we look for answers in stories."          --Katherine Center, The Rom-Commers

  1. I love the colors in this one, particularly the green wallpaper with its flowers.

  3. Once again, you have an image and quote that really resonate with me. I love stories--I love to read them, hear them, invent them, internalize them. Stories help me make sense of the world and my place in it.

  4. I think the quote is often true. And the painting is alluring in a quiet way.
