Those who can follow their heart with passion are those lucky ones, who will show us new ways of looking at the world.
This first painting is how William Blake looked at the world (or saw the world being looked at) in 1794, The Omnipotent.

The next painting by Lady Laura Alma-Tadema - Sunshine, could have been better, I think. What could have been a very nice scene is spoiled somewhat by the way the face has been diminished on the window side by what looks like the little girls hair. I think this could have been much better if she had left the line of the face cleaner with a higher contrast. The face is now too confused with the hair and other non essential elements.

What else am I to do, the World Series is rain delayed ...
