The Natural Graces


Does their beauty depend upon their pain? The delicate sentiment is slowly tinged with an element of fear. Half in flight, half grown--their freedom would be their death. I want to see them fly; I hope that they would never.

(Painting by Rene Magritte, "The Natural Graces").

I love Magritte. I was an art history major. :) I find he's not recognized as much as he deserves.

By the way, I LOVE your jewelry and I'm definitely hearting your shop and pointing my husband in your direction for gift ideas. :)
