Spring Delights

2008.05.18
"Color possesses me. I don’t have to pursue it. It will possess me always, I know it. ... Color and I are one. I am a painter."

Paul Klee

Colours are brighter when the mind is open.

Adriana Alarcon

"Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises."

—Pedro Calderon de la Barca [Spanish poet and playwright, 1600-1681]

Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing? Can one really explain this?


Pablo Picasso

"Green how I want you green.
Green wind. Green branches."

--Federico García Lorca

"It's not easy being green."

Kermit the Frog

“From a fallen tree, make kindling”

Spanish Proverb

Flowers really do intoxicate me.

~Vita Sackville-West

“Nature has neither kernel nor shell; she is everything at once”

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

My green hostas and my neighbor's flowers—
