A new poem - inspired by Spring

Mr. and Mrs. Cardinal

I just know when he is around

His calls are so loud, seemingly urgent

He flits about from branch to branch

My eyes could not find him.

He doesn’t rest

‘Til he hears the answer to his calls

Suddenly, a beautiful red appears

On a sea of green

Soon, a lesser red alights to join him

They both fly into the skies.....

Mating season has begun.

The Reach of a Painting

I have received numerous requests from all over the world to use my painting, GRIEF, for seminars, lectures, grief counseling sessions, cover for Women's Review of Books, cover for a Dutch psychology book, religious retreats, etc.

Sometimes, I discover the image being used without my permission for blogs and Facebook pages. Most are not aware that it is illegal to use copyrighted works without permission.

It has been uplifting to know that my painting has touched so many hearts over the years. It is more than an artist could hope for.

The Art of Dressing Elegantly - For Women of a Certain Age: Basic Rule 7

Rule No. 7:  You’re never too old to look good!

Some women give up on themselves just because they are “old”.  Age is a state of mind.  I am reminded of a friend in her early 90’s who lived on a limited budget.  She never failed to stretch and exercise every morning.  She walked almost everywhere.  And, when she did, she was always immaculately dressed – not expensively, just elegantly.  She kept her gray hair short and complemented her clothes with lovely silver jewelry. 

I can never forget the time she showed me a lovely Kenzo scarf she bought on sale at Filene’s Basement (remember it?).  She was so excited about how drastically reduced the price was.  She was 92 at the time.  Through all the years that I had known her, she had always carried herself with grace in both dress and manners.  She had always been the epitome of a lady to me.

The woman below illustrates a style that is simple, classy, and timeless.  Even carrying a cane did not detract from the elegance she exuded.
