Happy Inspire Your Heart With Art Day
I don’t know of anyone else who can inspire my heart with art more than the wonderful Sister Wendy Beckett….that silly creature! She has captured such a vast amount of my soul from a very young age. As a child, I turned the television onto PBS nightly, and stalked every sweeping movement down Italian corridors and through French palaces. I swung on every bucktoothed word she uttered as she described, with such delicious passion, each piece of artwork. Her persona struck me in such a way, that I paid her the highest form of flattery….imitation. I could do the “Sister Wendy” like no one else….especially when guests came by the house and I taught them about how our painting of fruit was “painted in Ancient Rome in 1976.”
