"Why?": My Illustration of a Poem by Fernando Pessoa.

Hello Lovelies!

From the "Why?" series - detail. Lipson (c) 2013.

Here is a mixed media (mostly ink on paper) series of illustrations I did some time ago to illustrate a favourite poem of mine, by Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa:

" À l'Univers j'apporte un nouvel Univers

parce que j'apporte à l'Univers l'Univers lui-même "

Pessoa ~ Le gardeur de troupeaux

Enjoy!

And Until I return... I will leave you with this beautiful thing to watch!

Hello again, Lovelies!

 Philo the cat (RIP) watching closely a paper crane from the "PCP".

A kind stranger once sent me by snail mail a paper crane (see photo above). It happened through an event called the "Paper Crane Project" (now closed). Thank you Liz!

But I just found this video that reminded me of that kind stranger and her "Paper crane Project". The video was found via the blog of guerilla artist Keri Smith.

It really put a big smile on my face, and I can only hope it will make you smile, too!

P.S. Bad, bad blogger I am. Writing a blogpost again, when i should really stop, when I should really rest. Doctor's orders!
