Fresh off the porch #bookmail!! I‘m hoping to use the tagged for #pop21 #AboutAnArtist Going to start it now maybe???

AutumnRLS Please let me know what you think of Maud Dixon! I've heard good things. We have an amazing overlap in our reading and I love seeing what you post and what you think! ❤ 4y
Megabooks @AutumnRLS thank you! 💜😊 I decided to start Maud instead of Super Host. I‘m 25 pages in and finding it fast-paced and interesting. I devoted most of today to You Love Me on audio, but I‘m excited to do some physical book reading tomorrow. 4y

Two books #aboutanartist that I‘ve wanted to read for a long time but haven‘t got around to yet. I‘m likely going to have a lot of spare time soon so maybe this is the year I finally read them? #MagnificentMarch

A timely quote from many decades ago. The College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn, Illinois is to host a unique collection of works by Frida Kahlo this summer. (Featured on storefronts there last Fall.) I hope it can happen. I was delighted to also see her painted on the wall of a Mexican restaurant recently. I thoroughly enjoyed this book #aboutanartist.

#MagnificentMarch #AboutAnArtist I know some of you are sheltered in place with a houseful, some alone.Hopper could paint a lone figure & make him or her so intriguing.Are they lonely? Are they waiting for a loved one to return? Are they leading a solitary existence? A story in every painting.I know there is a longing in all of us for things to be normal again, a night out, a trip to the bookstore.So glad Littens make this a oasis of positivity.🌹

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Beautiful and so true... I‘m thankful for all of you... not sure I could make it through each day without the friends I‘ve made here and the positivity here. I have deactivated Facebook, should have a long time ago... ❤️❤️ 5y
Leftcoastzen @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Yay! & Thank you! It is weird, I had a bad feeling about FB , never signed up . Many of my friends are minimizing their use of it lately if not deactivating it. 5y

Today's prompt for a book #aboutanartist made me think of one of my favorite King novels that involves a troubled artist and some very disturbing paintings.

Even though I hardly know anything about art I love to go to art museums and explore their pieces. Some of my favorite museums include the Met, the Guggenheim in NYC and LACMA in Los Angeles. However the most impressive little museum is the Norton Simon in Pasadena. Of course this title is from my tbr.

OriginalCyn620 I love The Met! I know little about art but love museums. 🎨 5y
mrp27 @OriginalCyn620 When I was living in NY I would visit several times a year, I miss it so much. 5y
LeeRHarry I love the Norton Simon museum too - and I‘ve just finished this book! 😊 5y

Bookwormjillk Is this new? I‘ve liked all of her books that I‘ve read. 5y
mrp27 @Bookwormjillk No, it's pretty old, at least 10 years or more. 5y
Bookwormjillk @mrp27 huh, wonder how I missed that one. I‘ll have to look it up 5y
