This morning I went downtown for an interview with the Director of the Old State Capitol Museum... afterwards I decided to embrace the "city-girl" feeling. I strolled around for quite some time, pacing up and down the streets of Third, North, Laurel, etc....I finally ventured into Strings Cafe...what a delightful secret! I decided to treat myself and stray far away from my diet and enjoy a spinach croissant with small spinach salad on the side (to still feel a bit healthy). This croissant was PURE HAPPINESS. SO AMAZING. Not only were my taste buds dancing but my mind wandered into my French altar ego. Edgar Degas instantly entered my mind. I could look at his ballerinas for hours, like a kid in a candy store. Along with that spectacular croissant, Monsieur Degas will be bringing a little happiness to my life today.
Here is a great link if you are interested in some background information...
This pastel is called Ballet Dancers. The colors are magical and broken strokes are flawless. The motion is liberating and the tones vivid. Enjoy!
I love the Ballet Dancer too! What a wonderful day, good luck with the job!
