“Get scared. It will do you good. Smoke a bit, stare blankly at some ceilings, beat your head against some walls, refuse to see some people, paint and write. Get scared some more. Allow your little mind to do nothing but function. Stay inside, go out - I don’t care what you’ll do; but stay scared as hell. You will never be able to experience everything. So, please, do poetical justice to your soul and simply experience yourself.”

~ from Albert Camus, Notebooks: 1935-1951

This is my only New Year's Resolution for 2024. I'm not a smoker, so I will substitute coffee for that part. Occasionally absinthe.

UPDATED: (1) Selfie in front of Gallery Espresso on Chippewa Square in Savannah, Georgia (2) My new tattoo on my left inner forearm (February 2024): “only connect,” the epigraph of Howards End by my favorite writer E.M. Forster, and really the theme of all his novels (including Maurice, my favorite novel). Typewriter font. Inked by James Tuck.

Vanessa Bell (British-English, 1879-1961) • The Tub • 1917

Vanessa Bell was an English painter and interior designer and prominent member of the Bloomsbury Group in the early twentieth century. She focused on Post-Impressionism and Abstraction in her art. “The Tub”, painted in 1917, is an unusually large work that was originally intended for the garden room of her new house. However, it was never installed and remained folded up until its rediscovery during the Bloomsbury revival in the 1970s.In this captivating piece, Bell follows the tradition of several French painters, including Degas, Matisse, and Bonnard, who depicted women during their toilette. The painting predominantly features yellow ochre and a greenish grey color palette.
