I guess this is the first food inspiration jumped onto my needles (do you think I become a true frenchy? yum)

In love with this color and texture blue_heart


I’m a longtime Marc Chagall fan sharing his love for mystic blue blue_heart
Who can resist his beautiful paintings– poetic inner dreamscapes replete with joy and childlike imagination?

He once said:
In our life there is a single color, as on an artist’s palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love … If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; if from the head, almost nothing.

These days there seems to be a shortage of love in this world. A good antidote is to immerse oneself in Chagall’s work — the stunning, swirling blues of moonlight, romance, memory, compassion, holiness, fantasy, truth. A blue face, a blue angel, a blue village, all help to heal a broken world.

And you, what is your favorite color? Your color of love?
