“Courage is the human virtue that counts most — courage to
act on limited knowledge and insufficient evidence. That’s all any of us
have.”
– Robert Frost
Yeah! I like that!
Scarecrows in Love – 4″ x 6″ Watercolor and Ink
Yesterday was my 10th wedding anniversary with my amazing husband.
So I may have been feeling a little sentimental when I was painting
these scarecrows. In the photo by JustJean at WetCanvas, they were not
so close together or lovie-dovie looking.
About Robert Frost
Robert Frost, the influential American poet known for his rural
settings, uncluttered language, and meditative themes, wrote the poems,
“A Road Not Taken” and “Mending Walls,” among many others. He was born
in San Francisco in 1874 and moved to Massachusetts at age 11. He ran a
farm for ten years, selling it to move to England and become a full-time
poet. After achieving his goal, he moved back to New Hampshire. His
ambition was to write “a few poems it will be hard to get rid of.” He
died in 1963.
