You posted it! :)<br />His work have a remarkable influence on my brainwaves,there is magic in his work.And than to accompany it with those words from Paul Eluard,only a skillful artist <br />can do that! And a poet!<br />"..a certain indifference,I have not always known well what I wanted to say,but most often it was because I had nothing to say,<br />necessity of speaking and the desire not to be heard.<br />my life hanging only by a thread."<br />Simply beautiful!<br /> Hvala !Alekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07514059217994184072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767484157936178574.post-20025388405569200252010-06-23T08:33:46.809-04:002010-06-23T08:33:46.809-04:00The way you describe the long stretch of dark weat...The way you describe the long stretch of dark weather moving to allow light is exactly the weather here this past week. Even right now, dark outside when it normally would be light, and heavy rain and thunder and lightening that is even more visible because of the dark. I like the painting "White Doors" but I am so taken with the sunbeams picture.
