In spring- A dip in the ocean will turn you blue. So the teal of a swimming pool calls for you. Chlorine, not sea smells, burn your nose. No shells, just tiles lay under your toes. Warm but cool- it will have to do. Swim little mermaid. Watercolor, 8 x 10, $200.
Today is my birthday. May 7. A day of reflection- always. I did this art recently of my friend Zoe for the header of her blog http://beautifulbeyond50.com/ and it seems to appropriately fit this day. Our friendship began when, as college women, we were both selected as Mademoiselle Magazine Guest Editors joining the ranks of accomplished "GEs" such as writers Slyvia Plath, Tama Janowitz, Joan Didion, Ann Beattie, Janet Burroway, Mona Simpson [Steve Jobs sister], Carol Brightman, Francine du Plessix Gray; journalist Lynn Sherr, NY Times food critic Gael Greene, Fashionistas Betsy Johnson, Linda Allard, Bonnie August, NY Fashion Week founder Fern Mallis, and actress Ali McGraw. A once-in-a-lifetime experience. We all went on to live our lives in different ways- some obviously more successful than others, but most of us are now at that age of reflection. Looking back, looking ahead, working on making ourselves beautiful beyond 50; inside and out. Today I will commence my next year of doing just that. "Zoe in mirror", pastel 5 x 7, commission.
