In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.Today I join Signs, Signs.
~ Marc Chagall
We are like chameleons, we take our hue and the color of our moral character, from those who are around us.
~ John Locke
The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.
~ Marcus Aurelius
Sit in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves that break upon the idle seashore of the mind.
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for.
~ Georgia O'Keeffe
There is not one blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make us rejoice.
~ John Calvin
This art graffiti is so pretty, and your quotes are wonderful. You put together a lovely collection of them. I am a real fan of G. O’Keffe. Genie
ReplyDeleteLove the sign and the contrast with the lady in black! Nice quotes.
ReplyDeleteWonderful composition, the black lady, the colorful flowers on this ordinary wall. And the quote fit perfect.
ReplyDeleteyour photo today is one of my favorites. the woman walking and her dress. does she have a phone to her ear? the sign is happy, and that they invite us to add some color, that makes it all the better. great capture! and I'm loving the Marcus Aurelius quote. thanks for sharing Francisca. have a fun day.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if that lady, all dressed in black from head to toe (and even with a black cell phone!) wishes she could add some colour to her life.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you here, Francisca
I'd easily listen to the request of add more color :) I love colors.
ReplyDeleteWhat a super photo, Francisca. We can't predict moments like these, or go out in search of them — we can just be grateful when they happen.

I love your photo and the graffiti too.
ReplyDeleteWe are having a municipal debate here about art vs graffiti and I see this as art!
ReplyDeleteI love the contrast of the lady in black against the colorful graffiti. What an excellent capture!
ReplyDeleteHi Francisa, great quotes to go with this lovely image.
ReplyDeletethe woman in black is perfect for the plea. great capture.
ReplyDeletei love the John Calvin quote.
A wonderful photo, Fransisca, and great quotes to go with it! It pays to always have a camera at the ready, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteI can only echo what everyone else is saying - what a perfect moment to capture. The lady in black, the plea for more color, the beautiful flowers on the wall ... capped off with the perfect quotes. This is a wonderful post!
ReplyDeleteWell captured. Such a contrast - the lady is all black, and the wall is so colourful... Happy Weekend Francisca.
ReplyDeleteThat's the kind of graffiti artist you want to see around here. So cheerful and colorful. It's a good photograph with the contrast of the woman dressed in black.
ReplyDeleteEven with colours I find such sadness in this shot!... Fantastic capture, Francisca.
ReplyDeleteWhat a picture! It covers so many emotions. (I think the lady seems sad, the flowers are joyful...) It's an amazing contrast in one photo.
ReplyDeleteI like your well-chosen quotes too.
