Originally, the idea was this. Two sisters spending one year creating art, or at least creating, every day using only supplies that they already have, get for free, find, or receive...looking to rediscover the artistic selves they've lost somewhere along the way in all the clutter of life... But it didn't fit into life, and so now who knows what you might find?!!

edith


I found this fabulous photo of Edith Wharton in her party gown, probably taken on her way outside to take tea under the wisteria hanging over the grand porch of her mansion in Massachusetts.  I remember having to read Ethan Frome and The House of Mirth for school requirements and finding her writing slow and sparse.  Perhaps it's time to revisit her; I could certainly use a gentle read - something slow-moving right now!
