women art

fascinating primitive surrealist abstract art: http://www.etsy.com/shop/mellonfineart

Velma wasn’t expecting a newcomer;

she shook hands

and smiled,

but

could feel herself bristling.

 

She didn’t like surprises.

 

She looked down into her blue tea cup

and wondered

why

Susan seemed familiar.

She didn’t like it.

She flashed quickly

on a photo that hung

in her childhood home.

About angelleighdesigns

http://www.etsy.com/shop/AngelLeighDesigns/about/ I'm a botanical archivist & mom of two little kids, knitting during our 40-minute commute across Pittsburgh's beautiful bridges. I'm also a cynic and deplore those ads for showing your individualism by purchasing mass produced furniture, clothes, accessories, whatever. Individuality cannot be expressed through mass produced objects. It is a structural impossibility. Shopping at department stores I have five choices. Working with a seamstress or artist on a handmade wardrobe, I have a world of choices. Handmade is freedom. I post weekly. My New England mom calls me Angel Leigh in a fake southern accent when she's playing around, and hearing it makes me smile.
