Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people. — Eleanor
Roosevelt
And meanwhile, on Wall Street, a new statue was on display for Wednesday March 8, the Day of the Month in March that is designated as International Women's Day. I think this is one of the most dynamic shots of the year!

I don't know if this is a permanent art work, but I hope so! This is the kind of thing all our little girls need to see! Here is a link to a video you can see about people's reaction to this little super girl!
Love it!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you like Fearless Girl as much as I do, Jay! When I first saw her on Women's Day in the morning, I fell in love with her at first sight. I spent the whole day drawing her, in preparation for the art quilt I am now painting. I began the quilt with just her late, late that night, and yesterday added 11 of us women who went to Washington on Jan 21, on a bus of 55 women from Wooster. I had painted 11 aprons, and now have the 11 of us wearing them, in Washington, on the bottom of the painting, under The Fearless Girl. I don't know what else will go into the painting yet, because, where I usually make many sketches for the whole painting before I start a big piece, this time I just had the girl. The rest will fall into place today.
ReplyDeleteI'd been looking at pix of ER, and I really like the one you've used in your collage of strong women in history. We'll see what happens later today! Happy Women's History Month to you! Lucky / Susan
I had seen part of your Wall Street Girl quilt on FB! It is going to be fabulous!
