A Place Of Her Own. James C. Christensen (American, born 1942).
“I wanted to create a retreat,” says Christensen, “a secluded little nook filled with art and books where a woman could really get away from it all. Here, the tension melts away as lilting strains of lute music drift across the overstuffed cushions. The objects in the room represent the things that I believe are important to a full and satisfying life…”
"There's no such thing as an ordinary human." - The Tenth Doctor
“Life is like a camera. Focus on what's important. Capture the good times. And if things don't work out, just take another shot.”
― Ziad K. Abdelnour
"Life is a great big canvas, throw all the paint you can on it." - Danny Kaye
“Don't forget - no one else sees the world the way you do, so no one else can tell the stories that you have to tell.”
― Charles de Lint, The Blue Girl
"We are all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
-Quote by The Eleventh Doctor.

Take care.

Date: 2018-01-09 02:06 am (UTC)Thank you for the very nice compliment on the journal. I love unicorns. I adore Jeeves and Wooster to bits. Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry captured my heart as Wooster and Jeeves, respectively. Do you have a favorite episode of the movies and short stories?
Take care.

Date: 2018-01-10 02:15 am (UTC)My favorite episode from the TV series is Jeeves Saves the Cow-Creamer because I love the goofy physical comedy that went into the theft, and Madeline made me howl with laughter the first time I saw the episode and she arrived in court.
While I love the short stories too, I read the bulk of them almost two decades ago. I remember Bingo Little being one of my favorite characters. Of the Wodehouse that I have read recently, "The Aunt and the Sluggard" is my favorite. It has Bertie helping out Rocky Todd.

Date: 2018-01-10 01:56 pm (UTC)I also love mermaids as well as unicorns and fairys,etc.. :D
That's my favorite episode too! Also love the physical comedy. I laugh so hard when Spode is chasing Bertie and Fink-Nottle down the halls because Bertie can't remember the name Jeeves told him. Then Jeeves comes to the rescue like always.
I adore the story where Bertie pretends to be Rosie M. Banks the author because Bingo is in love with the niece. Aunt and the Sluggard is fun too.
take care.

Do you like mermaid art? Selina Fenech, Jasmine Becket-Griffith and Josephine Wall have some pretty mermaid and fairy art.
It is wonderful to meet new people.
May you have a great day.
Take care.

Date: 2018-01-11 02:15 am (UTC)I love a variety of art. Thank you so much for sharing those artists with me! I especially liked Josephine Wall. I have seen her art before, but had yet to connect it with her name.
One of my favorite fantasy artists is James Christensen. I've always liked Fantasies of the Sea.
I hope your day is wonderful too!
