    favorite quote! oh my there are just so many!

    this is one i like, A lot:

    What we know about people keeps us from knowing them.
    What we say about them, imagining that we know what we are saying,
    makes it difficult to see them.

  3. 'The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. Whoever does not know it and can no longer wonder, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmedd' - Einstein.

    I just love your work and am going to be treating myself to a print or three later on this summer, once the endless rounds of markets and festivals has slowed up some! :D

  5. Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart. (Author unknown)

    Love your work! Thanks for such a generous opportunity.

    This is my favorite quote of all time:
    "The artist one day falls through a hole in the brambles, and from that moment he is following the dark rapids of an underground river which may sometimes flow so near to the surface that the laughing picnic parties are heard above." -Cyril Connolly

  8. Hares are such beautiful creatures and you have added a real touch of magic with your paintings.


    According to my little book of wit, The big print giveth and the small print taketh away. (A cautionary tale if ever we needed it). :)

  9. I am so thankful for your artwork. It does something to my heart, it melts the ice, crumbles the walls I have raised, and lets me see my true self. What a beautiful healing. Many Blessings to you, Sister.

  10. "Keep some room in your heart for the unimaginable." ~ Mary Oliver

    I love this quote because it reminds me to always be open. Magic, miracles and mysteries surround us, if only we free ourselves and our misconceptions, if we allow ourselves to believe.

    Your enchanting artwork touches my soul and I want to thank you for blessing my life with your creative beauty.

    Warmly,
    Michele

  13. You already know I love your art Amanda :-)
    SO many favourite quotes! Here's one from John O'Donohue, my favourite wordsmiths of the moment -

    "Your soul knows the geography of your destiny. Your soul alone has the map of your future, therefore you can trust this indirect, oblique side of yourself. If you do, it will take you where you need to go, but more important it will teach you a kindness of rhythm in your journey.". Hmmmm, sigh :-) xx

  15. The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose. - Hadia Beja

    I have to leave you this as I know you will love it....

    What if you slept
    And what if
    In your sleep
    You dreamed
    And what if
    In your dream
    You went to heaven
    And there plucked a strange and beautiful flower
    And what if
    When you awoke
    You had that flower in you hand
    Ah, what then?

    lots of love xxxxxxxx

  23. I found this one on FB, with no attribution. It is the most recent quote to make it to my inspiration board:

    "The world is not made of atoms. It is made of tiny stories."

    I really like this because I think all art, whether written, painted, danced or sung, is a story, recorded...
