I think we consider too much the good luck of the early bird
and not enough the bad luck of the early worm. Franklin D. Roosevelt
There is no such thing as public opinion. There is only published opinion. Winston Churchill

This is joyous and festive. I especially love the wee carriages.
Lisa, I just love your work (and quotes) you always inspire and intrigue me!
Holey Moley, I spent way too much time enjoying this wonderful piece! it’s a WOWZER
que buen trabajo Lisa!!
Ya estoy por aquí nuevamente 🙂
Oh, Lisa! These look like little jewels! So incredible. You’re right. Sometimes, opinions are soooo for the birds!
Certainly another a wonderful great piece for us to admire!!!
Great idea. A lot of individual stories could be traced from here, that’s where different set of opinions co-exist & crash!!!
your work is beautiful… reminds me of cloisonné… fun to read the quotes… that first one really speaks volumes about the state of the world throughout history… does that mean religion is opinion? hmmm
This is so amazing! I love the magic that it symbolizes. Wonderful and work intensive!
