Matisse and Me

"Time extracts various values from a painter's work. When these values are exhausted the pictures are forgotten, and the more a picture has to give, the greater it is"
~~Henri Matisse~~
Yes. It is true. I am a fan of Matisse and cling to quotes, painitngs, thoughts, processes and joys that he commanded. Matisse had a simple, stunning, character to his paintings. Nothing inspires me quite like his work and words.
Who is the one creative person, (creative in any aspect of life)that you hold dear?
Tonight Summer arrives. I look forward to this summer....seeing family in far off places, a holiday to the sea. (I have spent the money I won at the casino. A day trip has been booked to Honolulu...Pearl Harbour, Kilauea, and dinner & jazz before flying home. Larry was surprised)
Have a Happy Summer evening.........
Love you, me
