I found some paintings by...I'm still obsessed. <br />I found some paintings by Mike Bayne (2009) that are a bit snowy and have the colours that I am thinking about but maybe his architecture is more New Jersey I am not too sure.<br />I read your reply to friends which promoted much lively chat about how here in England we pretty much grind to a halt with a light dusting of the white stuff and how it never really snows for more that a couple of hours at a time and who could remember a chocolate box Christmas!<br /><br />It's made me think I have to go and see more stuff.<br />Today in the height of British summer it is grey and we are all feeling damp and I left the washing on the line and it rained in the night!<br /><br />Have a nice summer season and thank you for your reply <br />Regards CatherineAubrey Wishbonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10419953150561050861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943169481719963513.post-80893465085859140582013-06-05T09:03:44.141-05:002013-06-05T09:03:44.141-05:00what a lovely message-
thank you so much for takin...what a lovely message-<br />thank you so much for taking the time to write Aubrey.<br /><br />The snow and winter time here is both deeply lovely and a bit oppressive. The quiet of snow at night in the city, the blinding brightness of a sun-filled day with snow everywhere, the crispness of cold cold snow that squeaks with each footstep, the sledding, the ice skating, the coziness of soup and a warm fire- these are all things that make living here wonderful... but the cold is long and our house is sometimes drafty (it's hard of anything to stand up to -10F right?!). Sometimes I feel like winter lasts about a month or two too long.<br /><br />Now we're on the cusp of Summer and all that cold feels far away. Every day we're walking near the lakes and the river, to one of the many parks near by and digging in our vegetable garden out back. I love that we have such extremes here. I can't find any other place in the U.S. I'd rather be- Minneapolis has my heart with it's long winters and all.jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11285403858872713269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943169481719963513.post-87789286694886238972013-06-02T11:37:56.260-05:002013-06-02T11:37:56.260-05:00Hello
I too will continue to read, you were one ...Hello <br /><br />I too will continue to read, you were one of my first ever blogs and love looking at the work that you so beautifully produce.<br /><br />Because of something you wrote over winter,'it's been snowing for three days straight' or something to that effect, I have become obsessed with winter weather in Minneapolis! <br />What is that like?<br />I keep mixing visuals from the 80's, like Prince videos and movies like Untamed Heart or Beautiful Girls which feature the cold weather and thinking what must it be like if you don't have the resources to keep out the cold, like a drafty home or a really old coat that doesn't cut the mustard. <br />And is it quiet when it snows like that?<br /><br />Thank you for posting all that you do, it is quite lovely<br />Kind Regards Catherine<br />South Coast of the UK, occasional snow.Aubrey Wishbonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10419953150561050861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943169481719963513.post-35083084631629587242013-05-30T18:44:55.805-05:002013-05-30T18:44:55.805-05:00I'm a bit of an instagram addict so I know wha...I'm a bit of an instagram addict so I know what you mean.
