All works, no matter what or by whom painted, are nothing but bagatelles and childish trifles… unless they are made and painted from life, and there can be nothing… better than to follow nature.
Caravaggio

Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales was expected to clock in at anywhere between 100 and 120 chapters. Unfortunately, the dude only managed to finish 24 tales before he suffered an insurmountable and permanent state of writer's block commonly known as death.
Jacopo della Quercia

In essence the Renaissance was simply the green end of one of civilization's hardest winters.
John Fowles

This knowledge I pursue is the finest pleasure I have ever known. I could no sooner give it up that I could the very air that I breathe.
Paolo Uccello

John, your creations aren't only beautiful to look at, but also leave room to interpret what people see in them. Your title and the by you selected quotes/poems and music links are helpful, but they aren't mandatory.
This beautiful post is yet another example of that. Very well done again!

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
