Youth is happy because it has the ability to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.

About Me-ow
- Meow (aka Connie)
- Victoria, Australia
- I am a (mostly) stay-at-home mum of one daughter, with perhaps too much time on my hands ... I am obsessed with my computer and my Ipad, and am always on the lookout for more things that I can do with them! A few years ago I discovered digital photography, so that continues to be a passion. I am a mega cat-lover. I have spent time in my past-life writing poetry, so that is something I wish to get back into. I am an obsessive reader, who usually has a few books on the go. I have also become obsessed with Scrapbooking ... another thing I can do with all the photos I take ... and recently, I have also become obsessed with Quilting !! Blogging is a much-loved passion ... it is so much fun !!! Facebook seems to be taking up too much of my time these days, too !!

Beautifuly said!
Love that Meow, do you do china painting?
It is beautiful.
This is very true indeed. I once came up with a saying...."Love of beauty and of all lovely and wonderful things is indispensable for our growth. It brings reverence and a sense of transcendance into personal love and indeed into all life.
Heidi ... thank you. I loved the quote, and thought the painting went well with it. I hope you had a wonderful birthday.
Maddy ... yes, it is beautiful.
Dick ... no, it isn't my artwork. Wish it was !!
Momyblogr ... thank you.
Peter ... thank you. I have done ceramic painting in the past.
Ebun ... thank you.
Susie ... good pick up !! It is the same artist ... his name is Lamis Dachwali ... I think his work is fascinating, he has some gorgeous paintings, many abstract type ones.
Connie ... thank you, but it is not my work. My paintings are much more simplistic and amateurish. But, thank you all the same.
Fridays Child ... that is also a beautiful saying, well done and very true, indeed.
Thank you, friends. Hope you are all having a great day.
Take care, Meow
Hi Meow ~~ Lovely painting and the
sentiment is great.
Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Merle.
Beautiful! It looks like the hind end of a decorated merry-go-round horse...
Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes: "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye"--from The Little Prince.
What an interesting and very beautiful painting.
Beauty can be found every day all around us. It can be found in people and in places and in things.
That's beautiful Meow :). You are one talented kitty ;).
Merle ... thank you.
Saurkraut ... interesting way of looking at it !!!
Angel ... oooh, I love that quote, thank you.
Jamie ... thank you. Beauty is everywhere we look.
Clare ... thank you. I wish I could take the credit, but I didn't paint this picture.
Take care, Meow
I can't believe Kafta said that. I had to read his stuff at uni and it nearly made me sick.
That quote has restored my faith in him.
Tab ... that is such a lovely thing to say ... thank you so much. And you are most welcome ... I know it's only words, but I try to help and stay positive. You are a wonderful person, you'll get through.
Madi ... that's interesting. I've never actually read any of his stuff (not that I can recall, anyway), but this quote was nice.
Take care, Meow
Thats lovely! have a great weekend too! kate
ps love the painting too!
The world is a beautiful place. There are certain things that we do, as humans, that threaten that beauty constantly, yet still the beauty manages to remain, there to be seen.
You just have to look.
And look properly.
I'm grateful that I am able to do that. Some people can't, or if they can don't understand or appreciate it.
We should all appreciate this world, this breathtaking vision of life and creation with the simplicity and stark truth of a child.
Then I'm sure we'd all be a lot happier.
Alice ... I totally agree. You are a very insightful person. Thank you.
Take care, Meow
Kate ... thank you, and welcome. Have a great weekend. Take care, Meow
