It really means a lot that you've commented. I'm a bit speechless and star struck. I will look forward to the release of your next novel A Golden Web! Also, thank you for the praise of Women Painting Women. It's been a wonderful project to be a part of. <br /><br />Rahina, I'm glad you've enjoyed the quote. Try to get your hands on a copy of Vivaldi's Virgins as there are many more splended arrangements of words and thoughts inside. <br /><br />Happy painting, writing, being creative!Alia El-Bermanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17067984579687437154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193324200676410747.post-57857537230045068142010-01-25T02:40:47.650-05:002010-01-25T02:40:47.650-05:00a beautiful thought provoking quote from the book....a beautiful thought provoking quote from the book. <br />sorry i don't have any recommendations of the type you asked about but i think most writers can't help but be artistic. r.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193324200676410747.post-74237098952425702952010-01-24T13:39:16.379-05:002010-01-24T13:39:16.379-05:00Dear Alia,
Oh the Internet is a wonderful thing! ...Dear Alia,<br /><br />Oh the Internet is a wonderful thing! Your blog post came to me this morning, courtesy of Google Alerts, which is set to mentions of my novel.<br /><br />I myself have derived so much inspiration from the world of visual art. My newest novel, A GOLDEN WEB, depended entirely on art and illuminations I was able to find from the 14th century. Art captures life (as I know you know!) in a way that history books never can.<br /><br />Anyway, I'm going to look at more of your paintings now. I found the collection featuring "Women Painting Women" (including yours) to be breathtakingly beautiful--and will pass it on to other artist friends of mine.<br /><br />Warmest wishes,<br />BarbaraBarbara Quickhttp://www.barbaraquick.comnoreply@blogger.com
