Quoteflections Reverie

On my sidebar you see this title and painting by Emily Carr (1871-1945). Carr was a Canadian artist and writer who was inspired by the indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest.

To see her work, done in post-impressionist style, one is inspired by the majestic settings and calmed by the vibrant and flowing brush strokes. She captured well "the large rhythms of Western forests, driftwood-tossed beaches, and expansive skies."

One of my objectives at quoteflections is to provide a kind of retreat or solace from a rather frenetic Internet pace. There are so many links, so much information to cover,... so much noise. I would like to help filter out some of the frenzy and to provide quotes which celebrate life and its exciting possibilities.

Thank you for following.
