As 2016 Ends


Dining Room in the Country, 1913 by Pierre Bonnard (French, 1867-1947)
Yes, I need a little Sunshine
Right this very minute
Colors and a window
Chair with a cat in it


For I've grown a little leaner
Grown a little colder
Grown a little sadder
Grown a little older



And I need a little angel
Sitting on my shoulder
I need a little Sunshine now

(With apologizes to Jerry Herman.)

I keep trying to comment by Blogger clearly hates me, no matter how many time I click the stupid photos of pizza/shop fronts etc etc...

Anyway, what I keep trying to say is, Happy New Year, and it's only light and colour that keep me going in this mad mad world the others have created.

Happy New Year, BW, and light and color are what inspire me, too. :)

I LOVE that painting and am now going to look for a print.

Happy New Year, Colleen! Something soothing about this painting, isn't there? When I first saw it, it made my heart sing.
