I hope this season was relaxed and joyous for you without a lot of pressure that many people feel this time of year.

Even when my instinct is to move on, I'm drawn willy nilly, to rummage through old stuff. <br />I love the way you push on exploring new ideas - role model!!! <br />Happy New Year!cohen labellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00713812144707226168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5517953110445932114.post-32618258081126036602012-01-05T00:38:16.978-05:002012-01-05T00:38:16.978-05:00Actually Kathrin, all things considered, your Engl...Actually Kathrin, all things considered, your English is better than mine.

Take this strong painting (in colour and structurally- I really like it) you had probably reached a point where you unable to "see" it and it needed the hibernation not for its own sake but for yours.

"Die Windsbraut" is a work from Kokoschka and this reminds me of your picture.

It is good to hear your words. <br />What is the book I ‘m wondering that you are reading about Kokoschka and the film you mention “Die Windsbraut” I am not familiar with it – but will keep an eye out for it. At one time I knew two artists who had studied with Kokoschka in Munich. I also like extremely the work of Max Beckman! <br />Best to you from my neck of the woods!<br />Marciacohen labellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00713812144707226168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5517953110445932114.post-29439867064216612882011-12-19T01:49:09.137-05:002011-12-19T01:49:09.137-05:00Thank you Barbara!
