Guest Re-Blog: On Heresy and Hunger

ForgottenMan here, posting a guest blog at Judy’s request.

I posted this video by Robert Arnold on my ForgottenMan blog a few months ago, and Judy just posted this comment there: “This man is so right on! It’s like he crawls inside my mind and says what I believe better than I ever could. Can you somehow put a link to this on my blog? For some reason I hadn’t seen it before.”

I’m happy to oblige.

Busy Day

These were just a few of the projects dealt with today. Too tired to finish cleaning up the last two messes!!

The Turning Point, for Lens Artist Challenge #396

 

“…That big hour of decision, the turning point in your life… it just doesn’t come suddenly. You’ve trained yourself for it while you waited — or you’ve let it all run past you and frittered yourself away.” ( From “The Autumn Garden” by Lillian Hellman.)

I love this quote and have it taped to my computer desk, actually.  This was the best I could do at illustrating it. I really to believe that everyone has some creative talent within but we just have to find it by “doing” and letting it come out.

 

For Lens Artists Challenge #396 the assignment is to illustrate a favorite quote.
