| Opinions watercolor 12 x 9 |
While at the art center where I teach, I was struck by the simple beauty of some aluminum cans that were stacked up in the kitchen. (The art center uses these for the plastic utensils) These cans, along with many of the things we use, are manufactured for one use, then recycled....into other ones, I hope. I felt that one of these cans would make a perfect receptacle for a couple of very full valentine roses. These two blooms are both so lovely and so complex, yet each calls for its own space. Much like opinions, I think. Individual relationships are beautiful and, yes, complex, and the loving ones allow for differing opinions and much discourse.
My husband and I are in the process of a kitchen makeover. We love each other beyond measure. But our opinions on so many small details differ: on the materials to be used, on the placement of components, and, yes, on the cupboard handles as well.
What better metaphor for a home improvement?
