Grouping Prints
(Source: tamsinjohnson)
I am happy to be back to my blog (August totally disappearing due to laptop
collapse) with a new HDD up and running!
Here is a great example for hanging multiple prints/paintings. which is always a challenge.
This can very inspirational if you are a collector of special pieces of framed art, but are in
a quandary as to how to display them tastefully. Your collection will not look exactly like
this, but it will definitely show your own personality! I, myself, am faced with this problem,
being one of those with an art ‘stash’ which I have recently perused! Happy Hanging!

Calender. Stretch of time
I haven’t posted for an approximate month…moving into a new apartment has absorbed my time…
Used up my ‘calender’,
Put me in touch with the immediate minus cyberspace.
My work is accomplished, ying yang has come around,
And I am balanced again and glad to be back.

“to Odette”
Fair white swan of mystic night
singing me wave upon wave
of moonlight
you spin and white lace encircles you
spirals of echoing light
a rapid bouree to a moonbeam
and the cold calculating scent of morning
hangs like icicles from your breath
caress me gently, my dove,
kiss me!
– the cold still kiss of night
of death
(a wane hand upon my shoulder now)
embrace
a circle of lines
a symmetry of passion
ending in arabesque
your converging planes
form a portal to my soul
love, fair, sweet swan of love!
