Celebrating the wit, wisdom and beloved characters of Roald Dahl this week. I love this quote, and love it even more when read in context:
“If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And
when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year,
the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it.
A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a
wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth,
but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like
sunbeams and you will always look lovely.”
(Roald Dahl, The Twits)

Back to school!
It's back to school time.
And *I* am going back to school -- I'm taking art lessons.
Here's an example of what I am working on.
