The Sunshine Diary |
My name is Kelly I love life, café au lait and tea with milk, music, things that sparkle, the streets of Paris, brightly painted front doors, candle light, peonies, antique mirrors, the outdoors, creaky floorboards in chevron patterns, jewelry, the color yellow, dogs, dark chocolate covered gummy bears and dancing, for starters. I believe the most interesting things are the most beautiful. I chose to love and be happy. I'm my own person. email me: thesunshinediary at gmail dot com |
I hadn’t thought about her in quite a while…
La Petite Danseuse de Quatorze Ans, Edgar Degas
The sculpture was originally made in wax, circa 1880, before it was cast in 1922 in bronze. Degas clothed the figure in real silk, tulle, and gauze and a horsehair wig tied with a silk ribbon.
Last night I dreamed I was a Degas ballerina.
