When all my chores are completed and I'm home for the moment, and I have that luxurious moment of time, I enjoy day dreaming. Sitting with a cup of tea, kicking back in my recliner and drifting my mind most often goes to art. Gustav Klimt is one of my favorite artist and when in Paris last year I did see one of his paintings in the museum. THE KISS, is probably his most famous work. He began work on it in 1907 and it is the highpoint of his so-called "Golden Period". It depicts a couple, in various shades of gold and symbols, sharing a kiss against a bronze background. Believe it or not, he was 45 and still lived at home with his mother and two unmarried sisters. You can Google him to find out more about this very unusual artist and his life. I won't spoil the surprise about his life - check it out for yourself. Do however, enjoy the picture. It was a perfect day to stay home as the wind howled, and the wind chimes frantically tried to keep up with the wind. My plants are all about in the house and we are expecting ICE and SNOW! Today's thought struck me with a chuckle because I am a "computer dater" as most of you know...from Rita May Brown "Computer dating is fine if you are a computer". Google me out and cover me with blankets...Tuesday, February 1, 2011
