I got this forwarded in an email, and thought they were so delightful that I couldn’t hep but share it. Even though not specifically art-related, some of these do bring vivid word pictured to mind do they not? May these happy thoughts inspire you :
- the feel of a rug under bare feet
- a lake catching the last flecks of sunlight coming in over the pines
- shadows cast by shutters against shiny white walls
- sweet fresh corn on the cob
- seeing the moon rise
- pajamas at breakfast
- brand-new notebooks
- a rich spiced chocolate drink
- red-carpet treatment
- a boat tour to see picturesque little villages
- fruits to smell: early apples, fresh strawberries
- the delicious smell of cooking food and the hustle and bustle of the preparation
- driving under an overpass during a storm
- fresh muffins
- coffee steeped with cinnamon sticks and then iced
- eight hours of sleep
- paintboxes
- stickpins
- stilt-legged wharves
- writing a screenplay
- making a stew or soup on a cold snowy day
- flickering gaslights
- lakeside roads with farm stands offering pumpkins, pears and other fruits and vegetables
- passing notes in church
- competence
- dim, low-hanging factory lamps
- smooth, muscular arms
- snorkeling

- dinner with laughter
- knowing there will be many surprises in the future!
