louis’ lovely ladies
hi friends! i know it’s pretty cold for so many right now so i hope you’re tucked in warm and cozy tonite!
yesterday i started cleaning off my desktop and was happy to see you enjoyed it. today i started working on some of the folders. so many of the images aren’t hi res so they can’t go to print. soooo the next best thing is to share them with you! i wish i could figure out how to get them to blow up when you click but it seems like wordpress may have changed that feature.
so tonite it’s louis icart, one of my favorite artists. he captured moments of contemplation,
trepidation
elation!
and anyone who loves dogs, well…
he painted women so delicately but still kept them strong
i have tons more so if you like him too let me know and i’ll finish up that folder tomorrow!
for tonight, stay dreamy
don’t work too hard
and enjoy your friends in person or on their blogs! love you!! xoc

So, so delicious! I adore Icart and have a couple framed here at the House of Edward! His work was so feminine and so lovely. The selections you chose to show are beautiful.

Hows the modernism theme in paris? Does one exist? Everytime I come across french art, its very archaic.

Your blog is lovely, as always, but I must say the winter pictures gives one good cause to be in the South. Brrrrr! I’m happy to be in the deep South on our lil’ island, lovely as NYC can be in winter.
I so enjoy your special place.

Very pretty, elegant Ladies – my favourites are the Ice skating scene and trepidation.
Didn’t they have such style and elegance.
Enjoy your weekend.
