"A good painting to me has always been like a friend. It keeps me company, comforts and inspires."
Hedy Lamarr

“Figs are restorative, and the best food that can be taken by those who are brought low by long sickness...professed wrestlers and champions were in times past fed with figs.”
Pliny, Roman naturalist (A.D. 23-79)

It's open house week for the artists of Aberdeenshire and tonight we went with a friend to his sister-in-law's joint exhibition. Very convivial, wine and food - and we bought a painting of a bowl of figs. Perhaps I'll blip it tomorrow.
