If you click on the above link or the image on my blog it will give you the opertunity to join a group that I am member of that is about Pre Raphaelite Influenced Art.


This is a part of art that i was really into, espically when I use to life model in my twenties.

This is also an time in art  when famous works of art were created like the following.

)


One of the thinga that I love is to study art and find out more about the artisit life and the subject when every posible.

One of the things that people often of get is not the artist buth the subject.

This why I love it when film or documentries are made about the art world.

  1. Frida
  2. Girl with a Pearl Earring
  3. Lust for Life
  4. Big Eyes
  5. My Left Foot






One day maybe I will write my own story?




 Remembering with Memorials and Statues


With in this blog I have add a number of images that if you click on to them will transport you to another web site.


One of these is a facebook group called "Remembering with Memorials and Statues." on Facebook.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/238099003668877

This group is the brainchild of Paul Els, who wants to start collecting not only pictures but history of war memorials as well as statues that have been erected both locally and overseas to honour South African people/animals or groups of South African people/animals for their contribution to the defence of Southern Africa. 

I have add this group manily due to my book that I am trying to finsih called "Pure Light" that is based in South Aftrica and also beacuse it is a place tht I would  love to vist.

So why not take a look at this socail media group and see if it is some thing that may intrest you.

Alice in Wonderland Down the Rabbit hole. By Lewis Carroll

 

Alice in Wonderland Down the Rabbit hole. By Lewis Carroll


Chapter I: Down the Rabbit-Hole - Alice-in-Wonderland.net



it is the 24th May 2021 and once again I have had a fight with my ex. It always seam that when people fight they always seam to fight about about the same things.


Death and Taxes

Family and Friends

Property and money


Where should we go on holiday this year? Should we take the kids? Should we kennel the dog? Should we get some to house sit?


Over the last almost two years the world that we once knew is no more.


Ever since I was young I have wanted to be self-employed and run my own business I am now almost 40 and I should may be look at making a B-movie or sitcom of how many times I have failed.


Also I know is that I can not take one more shitty course on how to become self employed where some mild-aged person stands in front of a slid show.


Showing you that if you do A, B, C then you will get to D and be a millionaire with in three years.


So what do I do?


All I know it that I have had 101 and Jobs since leaving high school and now I am a full time mother to three child.


Who love to say “I hate you mum!”


So what so I do?


How do I move forward with out having to take 10 steps back and going down the “Rabbit Hole” like am “Alice in Wonderland.?” By Lewis Carroll alice in wonderland - Bing
