"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Strip away.

I decided to start anew, to strip away what I had been taught.

I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life - and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.

I often lay on that bench looking up into the tree, past the trunk and up into the branches. It was particularly fine at night with the stars above the tree.

- Georgia O'Keeffe
