The Scream

I bet most of you are familiar with Edvard Munch's famous painting "The Scream." And I bet that now, quite a few of us feel like doing just that.
Well, I saw this in the paper today. A group of Russian workers has started a Facebook page editing famous paintings to give them a laugh.

A woman just cut out the face, and replaced it with a photo of her dog. They have done Mona Lisa, and many others. I tried to find the page, but could not. Darn.

But I did happen to see this on Facebook.I love it!

You’re allowed to scream
You’re allowed to cry
But don’t give up.

I love all these types of altered pictures. Some of them are so funny! What we humans do when we're bored, eh? *LOL* Love, Andrea xoxo

Keeping a sense of humor and entertaining themselves. These edits accomplish both.

For those of us not working from home, we have much time to be creative. Some are very entertaining and very humorous. All these help to keep us sane till we are free from the virus.

this just may open the door for many NEW artist. Looks like many have created their very own thoughts through this painting during this "Stay at Home" period. Stay well...stay safe

Not screaming yet !!
To answer your question on my blog...
The flowers are California Poppies.
They grow wild everywhere this time of year.
This year seems more prolific than some.

My admiration grows for those who are using their downtime creatively. My creativity, on the other hand, seems to be in finding ways to avoid things I should be doing.

I love that quote Ginny!

I wanted to share with you regarding my blog, the Dahlia thing with me. Ha Ha, you were right, that Dahlia I grew. I grow them, but have this love / hate relationship with them. Last garden season all the gardener's in my area where just nuts about them. I like them, but I love other flowers a lot more, Hee Hee. ;-)
Take Care friend!!!

Sunday Sunset

 I snapped these from the Target parking lot. The sun had just gone down, but the trees were hiding the very bottom part of the sunset. Life...
