“Difficult
times have helped me to understand better than before how infinitely
rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that
one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever.”

This is another little crop of the painting I am working on. It’s small, too. I bet this crop is only about 1.5″ or so. Hmmmmmmm…
Have a terrific weekend!
About Isak Dinesen
Isak
Dinesen was the pen name of Karen Blixen, the Danish author famously
portrayed by Meryl Streep in the film of her best-selling memoir, Out of Africa.
She was born near Copenhagen in 1885. In 1914, she and her new husband
moved to Kenya to run a coffee plantation. She stayed on after divorcing
her husband ten years later, living an unusually independent life. Her
book of stories, Seven Gothic Tales, sold well, but Out of Africa made her a worldwide success. She died in 1962.
