I'd swim with you, Bonniediva!

Over the years I have received a few pieces from BonnieDiva. All collages, I believe. One came from The Sticker Dude, for my archive.

When I receive something that is more abstract or a collage, with no context, I look for impact, for relationships, for colours and I rely on my emotional response to interpret or to commune with the piece. The first thing that came into my head, before I turned it over and saw 'Happy New Year, Be well!' was that it feels like a folk song. Perhaps it's the woman who reminds me of Carol King? I want to sing the Crosby Nash Stills and Young song: 'our house' as I look at it. Or the Coca Cola Ad ' I want to teach the world to sing.' It is looking backwards to a simpler time and hopefully forward to a time when it will be possible to all swim together again.

I feel your hands reaching across the Atlantic, Bonnie Diva.  Aren't we all starved for hugs and ready to pull our masks down and be part of this big, wide world with all our humaity!

Thank you.
