This was #sunset tonight. #insomnia now so I thought I might as well share this beauty. One #pine tree and a #pink pink sky. No filters no nothin. Thanks, #nature. Edit- that’s TWO pine trees! Big daddy line tree, little baby pine tree. And the #Jura. https://ift.tt/2UCr7ni

Worth the wait. Not that we even knew it was under there. Move into a house in October and March is bound to bring all kinds of revelations. This one lone #tulip along the garage wall today for instance. I’m sure there’s a lesson on #waiting here. #breathe, #grow, #bepatient. #behealthy #emerge. https://ift.tt/2UFoKjo

Present yourself as though you were a gift. Another piece of #goodadvice from my #mother, this greeting card she framed. She loved this #artist and the #aphorisms on her cards. Thanks, Mom. As soon as I’m no longer in quarantine-isolation, I will heed this guidance. #janemfreund https://ift.tt/39jljEc

Another #mosaic pic, with #mirror #selfie plus #meta oil painting of #painter in reflection. That one is literally #streetart. My mom found that painting on the street, along with a load of other discards that she kept for the canvasses. We all really liked that particular painting though, and I’m glad she hung it. Weird capture in her hall of #mirrors though. #janemfreund https://ift.tt/33FAjLD

My #mother’s #mosaic dining table. Yes, she did the whole thing this way. Every place setting, centerpiece, the works. Dinner was always about the presentation with her, not the food. I sure miss her. Every year on #mothersday she gave my brother and me cards that thanked us for making her a mother. Now I’m a mother I totally get it. #janemfreund #tile #table #artsandcrafts #artsylady https://ift.tt/2wlnxWB

#coexist. On numerous cars in #California. I’ve always liked this symbolic representation of tolerance and co-mingling of religious difference... now it seems we need to upgrade the bumper sticker. The more human beings #stayhome, the more animals and nature get a chance to thrive. Interesting times. #stayhealthy https://ift.tt/2Qx5fbp

#buylocal. Every time I #washmyhands I use #oliveoil to moisturize so when a friend of a friend’s family-run olive oil business suddenly lost its restaurant business I replenished my supply asap. Also, one of my first #marketing jobs at my father’s company was catalog photography. Don’t you think the houseplant and #artsy #composition are impressive? 🤣 if you’re local around Lausanne — www.katrantzis.ch https://ift.tt/3a8fCuj

#artcanthurtyou. Creative ways to #selfisolate. This is another one of my messages from my #mom. Or maybe it was a #notetoself when she was alive. Either way. It seems like a good one to share today. Stay safe! Stay home! #janemfreund https://ift.tt/33r36U8

#homeswisshome. Almost! https://ift.tt/39YiN7K

Trying to get #home. About ten of us on that first flight. My second flight was more full, and most people had masks and/or sanitizer wipes. Two more flights to go, if all goes well. My taxi driver gave me a mask. People are amazing. https://ift.tt/33nEY4z

If I go looking for messages from my mother in her artwork, it doesn’t take long to find some good ones. This old school desk is one of my favorites of her #collages.#picture it Not everyone can. And #brainpower. Also her tongue-in cheek (permanently) Eat pizza 7 days a week. #mixandmatch #words. Man, I miss her. #janemfreund https://ift.tt/3cQVMFL

Another #sunset pic without filters or any manipulation whatsoever. How beautiful is this place? https://ift.tt/2TGyfjd

#couple on the #beach at #sunset. I didn’t do a think to colors or clarity or nothin. This was just what #nature did out there. #sand #sea #sundown #sobeautiful #socal https://ift.tt/2wFvHbY

Noughts and crosses. #california #telephonepole #shadows, navy #bluesky #pinecone balls - what are these actually called? https://ift.tt/2PZFe4e

Hard to caption this experience adequately. Just heard US #poetlaureate #juanfelipeherrera speak with #AndrewWiner on experimentation and migrant life and #UCLA #creativewriting and #dance and #wordpower and #peyote and #tasting and #feeling and playing with funky sequences of #words, and it was everything I love about #writing. #feelit. #synesthesia. And I got my dad there to enjoy it with me. Now I’m gonna devour this gorgeous book. https://ift.tt/3aEzOne

Keep your #shadow in front of you, where you can keep an eye on it. I don’t know where I just read that, but it seemed very wise. Especially if you’re heading down some #stairs in an alley at the crack of dawn. #selfie https://ift.tt/2vDoZDl
