Artnotes: Chance

 

Beauty and the Beast Red Door   Blair Pessemier  acrylic/canvas  16 x 12"  40 x 30 cm   350.00 A year comes and goes Punctuated At its departure By Holidays We always remember Assigning Better or worse characteristics To friends and family Obligated To see Eat food We barely like Yet couldn’t Imagine Life without Dishes     Laurie Fox Pessemier     Acrylic/paper    It’s been a picturesque week in Roccamalatina with sun rising 3 minutes later each day:  today, 7:44.   At such an angle, the sunlight makes everything it touches look jewel-like.  The hills are a deep orange against a pink sky.  Beautiful. Oak Leaves in a Blue Vase   Laurie Fox Pessememier   Acrylic/canvas  17 x 15"  43 x 38cm  390.00 The animals can be heard during our waking hours now.  Wolves  (the national animal of Italy) are howling in the woods nearby.  Berlino and I see wet footprints of the wild boar, and the roe deer are never far away.   I can even smell the pigs sometimes. On  the Way Laurie Fox Pessemier  acrylic/paper    Christmas lights abound – there’s a surprisingly lovely light display in Roccamalatina center.  I say surprising, because usually we only have street lamp decorations and an unlit tree.   I bought a set of “solar” lights for our assembled outdoor tree.
