wooly enough
to cloak a flock
/t.
Maybe he can be the shepherd for the flock? We'll see. I'll have to interview him.
AND WHAT'S WRONG
WITH THE CURRENT SHEPHERD?!?
uh oh
LL, i think you
hurt Lon's feelings :(
/t.
Oh! I didn't know Lon was still our shepherd. Is there any way to make up for my mistake?
mark rothko can cloak my flock anytime ..
wait .. darn it .. i don't have a flock .. hmmmmm ..
thinking here ..
anyways .. i just love this one. and it has my favorite colors too .. :)
LL,
i dunno...
maybe you could
knit him a nice scarf
¤ ¤ ¤
foam,
ummm, yes, almost foam grays, tho these ones are tinged with a bit of green/gold -- thanks!
¤ ¤ ¤
/t.
Consider it done.
an 18 year old shepherd?
well...in my opinion (HA!) that's going to be one tough assignment.
On the other hand, Lil Lamb making a scarf sounds as much like she'll be wearing a 'tube top' for thew rest of Summer.
oops...I forgot to take the 'wild zinnia' off the name.
anyway.
Who would dare to wear another man's art for an avatar?
What?
Oh...well. Just for a lil while.
hmmm...rothko.
the guy who didn't like labels? didn't want to be classified as an abstract expressionist or even as an abstract painter (according to wiki - uh oh- and I tell my students not to rely on wiki).
but if true, i find that fascinating - don't label me.
now i've got to search the Internet for images of his work.
This is better than Rothko
LL,
<3
boneman,
you look like me... but w/o stache... or face
bird,
rothko -- one and the same -- i like his work because it is modern and ultimately very human -- the 'message' comes from you, the beholder -- it is 'sensed' rather than 'read' or 'understood' -- i think his works have more or less to do with the jewish holocaust
greetings to san francisco!
¤ ¤ ¤
mo,
you are quickly becoming one of my favorite photogs for your wonderful images from the streets of london(!)
thanks for visiting
/t.
Hello /t :)
hello,
beautiful mayden :)
<3
Thanks.
Can you write widgets? Have a great idea for one but don't know how to write it.
This is also lovely t/. and Foam's colours...my prints have much brighter colours...I could only afford them because they were on sale, one had a damaged frame, so that was half price. ♡
I noticed this was posted at 11.11am, I actually managed to post something at that time in the pm, it must have been a fluke. :)
mo,
widgets...
lemme see 'bout that
i'll get back to you in a bit
dianne,
rothko worked with vivid colors, but i don't really understand his color schemes -- (i like 'em, tho)
posting times can be set, dianne -- in advance or after the fact -- i like to set mine to closest time using binary digits, 0 and 1
¤ ¤ ¤
/t.
Well /t. dear my posting time was completely random. ♡ :)
/t. dear I have synosthesia in a mild form, I see numbers in colours; I love the colours of Mark Rothko's paintings, I think he may have been synosthetic and he saw and felt his colours as emotions. ♡
where can I explore further my widget idea?
dianne,
i saw a tv program
about that -- a woman
from down under -- sydney --
and i immediately thought of you
she sees words and letters as colors
¤ ¤ ¤
mo,
your local computer shops are a good source for local services -- ask around -- good luck
/t.
elegant.
hi
chickory
<3
Thanks
Rothko rocks my word
