Weekend Through the Lens 43

'The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.'
~ Pablo Picasso





We are sharing with these creative bloggers this weekend:





This is what Cape Ann MA looks like after the Blizzard on Tuesday with more snow to come Friday evening. Are we having fun yet? Anyone have a place to rent where there is no snow?





Haiku with prompt 'Servants Day' I have no servants so I wait on myself.





Beautiful sky on Cape Ann MA,  the only one we had in between snow storms this week.





Ms. ArtMuse Dog enjoying warmth of home in between the snowstorms on Cape Ann MA.





Mr Crow posing on Cape Ann MA in between snowstorms.

    So much snow on those branches. An animation is running through my head of those branches suddenly waving their arms and shaking the snow at each other. :-)

    I'm sure the snow can get old, but for someone that doesn't get it often, it looks beautiful. I also love the progress on your music inspired painting, with the delightful color scheme. Blessings to you and Muse Dog!

    It looks like you made good use of your between snowstorm times. I think we are missing the next one that is coming too, it looks lie we will get rain. Yucky, but not as inconvenient.
