a christmas rose Merry Christmas and welcome to my Inspiration weblog, where I will be posting little tidbits like poetry, prose, and photographs that inspire me in my field: art, for both the imagination and the eyes. As far as art for the eyes goes, I have a liking for vintage fashions; old-fashioned living; classical, Renaissance, Victorian, Art Nouveau and Pre-Raphaelite artwork and crafts; medieval illumination; Tolkien's work; and many modern photography works. (I also have a love for Beatrix Potter's illustrative and writing talent. Wonderful!) For me, art for the imagination, as I call it, includes vivid poetry, classic novels and a few modern works, especially those of Dickens, Hugo, Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, the Brontë sisters, Shakespeare, Sutcliffe, and Jacques, to name only a few. These works have inspired me to write my novels, which currently follow the adventures of a mouse and his friends, and his search for his identity in the midst of love, war, and a mystery that will shape his life, but it may mean the destruction of all that he loves. Another story of mine you may read on my other blog. I will be back with my dreams, inspirations, and ideas. But for now, Merry Christmas! 6:43 PM - Dec. 21, 2008 - post comment
