I just have to say a huge thank you to Leif Peng for his fascinating and oh so impressive collection of illustrations from the 40's & 50's. I check his blog, "Today's Inspiration," well -- daily for inspiration. I could just scroll & click for hours if I let myself. This deliciously pretty piece of melodrama posted recently, caught my eye. It's caption says, "Suddenly the gates were opened in my heart and I was crying blindly - for the first time." Why is she naked? What has made her cry so... blindly? And WHERE is she? Such lovely lilacs surround her!
