Look at all the detail! This vintage painting is by Margaret Tarrant and titled Enchanted Fairies.
I’m definitely traveling backwards to a magical time and place….and I’m finding JOY energy!
“The moment you doubt where you can fly,
you cease forever to be able to do it.”
~J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
And from Roald Dahl, Matilda:
“You seemed so far away,” Miss Honey whispered, awestruck.
“Oh, I was. I was flying past the stars on silver wings,” Matilda said. “It was wonderful.”
Hope the week treats you kindly! LR

Joy energy – love that thought.
I love the thought of JOY energy too! I realize it’s a choice and a mindset that can be nurtured along. Enjoy the JOY!
Linda, truly this painting is magical. I love it, and the quotes!
I’ve been gathering these images around me so my mind rests in that magical place. I’m glad you felt it too.
I love the light in this. (I also hear Oprah’s voice saying, “And you get a firefly, and you get a firefly…” 🙂 Make good art!
The painting does have that feel but I’m missing the Ophra connection…..? These old fanciful paintings are quite a delight. Happy birthday to you, Marilyn. I received a Facebook notice that you are celebrating this week. I’m not savvy with Facebook so I hope you get this message through my blog…..
