Woodstock the Ghost and ...

 
"Art is a collaboration between God and the artist,
and the less the artist does the better."
~ Andre Gide,  French critic, essayist, & novelist (1869 - 1951)

Like the way this 'peace' came together and LOVE the above quote.  Although, I know planning is important, this 'peace' just materialized from one of nature's Chinese bottle gourds and my God given gift to express myself with a little bit of paint and a brush.  One of my life's blessings (for which I am very grateful) sprinkled into the craziness!  

I call him Woodstock!

he has some slightly invisible friends that always accompany him ...

gotta have a spider to eat the bugs!

need a witch on a broom and a harvest moon!

... and a scary old tree and bats and pumpkins!

 
and PEACE, we gotta have PEACE!
just in time for Paint Party Friday too!  See ya there!

    1. Thx for sharing alisa burke ... I have not seen her gourds or was I familiar with her work. You are the 2nd person who has shared her name with me in the last couple of days - I'll check her out! Can't wait to see yours :)

  17. He is wonderful and I so love that quote from Andre Gide - it is so very true. When we connect with our Creator the art flows right from Him.
