Boblo Picasso: Two Teachers In One

For a post which blends photography, Bob Dylan, Pablo Picasso, the personal, the subliminal - and fish trucks (!) - in such a satisfying way, and all within the context of a walk, try reading this from the blog Talking 37th Dream With Rainbow (Rumors Of Peace). I've been following this blog of Amanda Wald Rachie's for a long time now - indeed it's one of my favourites - and I rarely find anything in there that's not illuminating or of value. I'd like to write further about this blog - and a few others I read regularly - in more detail in a later post.

Art is a lie that tells the truth. PICASSO

It takes a long time to become young. PICASSO

Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now. BOB DYLAN

Yes I agree - I enjoy Am's blog, ecletic and interesting in its gentle way.

Love your use of the Picasso quote about it taking a long time to become young.

Do agree about the Picasso quote - one suddenly reaches an age when all those things one had worried about disappear - is my slip showing, is my skirt tucked in my knickers, have I got egg on my face/lipstick on my teeth. Suddenly - who cares!
