These are the photos I offer in Black & White for Anne Marie at Na Da Farm's Sunday. They are of objects that calm me when the sea is rough. I have no idea if the lovely new Anne-Marie (at Na-Da Farm) to whom I am linking, will notice I have done this. But it is ... time...
From JJ, after the Great Fire
Khalil Gibran whom I first read at high school when I was 16, who annoyed the priest at my wedding and in whose words I still find solace.
The violin? Unfinished work - but not for long.
Another angel on my table (merci CC)
A word I LOVE
Du Vide Naît l'Enérgie, from my teacher Anne Sacramento
May your Sunday bring peace - and inspire...
Love
This is a lovely post. Things happen when the timing is right.
ReplyDeleteHey Ange
ReplyDeleteI read the opening sentence and thought.. I can tell you who the AM is... and then read the rest and of course you know!!....
Unfortunately I won't be able to do B&W Sunday this week..I have to work more today... but... you have done a wonderful job for both of us!
Pop over and leave Anne-Marie a comment.. I'm sure she'll be thrilled to have another participant.. especially when this one keeps dropping the ball!!!
Take care.. have fun
xx Julie
Mmm, what a yummy post. Even without color, they're so lovely. I especially love the violin pic and the one of "amour."
ReplyDeleteLovely photos. You may be surprised to learn that I wear black and grey all the time and we are now renovating our house in shades of white and grey. I love colour, in art, nature, food, clothes(my children's), music and laughter but I need simplicity elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteMy eldest son read passages from Gibran at Savannah's christening...
Tammie, it's true!
ReplyDeleteDeb - I love lots and lots of white everywhere (makes it easier to set off that splash of colour!) - it's the shades of grey and black I've always had problems with. Our house is an old farmhouse with lots of wood so I in fact add white and shades of 'ficelle' (no grey) to lighten it. I can paint grey furniture for anyone - but I can't have grey in my home. Strange - it has to be taupe, or linen, or ficelle, galet, but not grey!
Leah! What a lovely surprise!!
Julie I miss your posts! I look eagerly every day and then I think - 'hOpE she's at least out enjoying the Aussie sun! It's hard not to let work take you over!
Lovely photos Ange - weirdly I am going through a phase for grey - I have painted our bedroom that colour (somehow it feels very French now).

I too love grey, I love the way colours bleed into its sombreness as if the space draws them to fill it with gentle colour. Of course I love colourful food and bundles of indian silks, and an autumn landscape, and your Amour picture...your work is lovely.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy those kiwis xxxxx

Your site is just lovely - very inspiring! The image with the word AMOUR is fantastic. Thanks so much for visiting my site. I will check back to yours often - love to see what you will post next.

I too am a lover of grey, as it is a mixture of two colours I adore - noir et blanc.

The word AMOUR is off a table that I did up with here and there with words I loved... And as I read your comments, I am won over again by grey... but that blue grey of a rainy day sea. And grey is very French, Fabulously French ;-)
