Inspired by LarryRobinson’s Poem for the day, I launch the topic, Artsy Postcard of the Day, as a visual arts compliment to that day-by-day versification.
The first postcard, I LOVE WITH ALL MY HEART, was created for Valentine’s Day (yesterday):
Today’s postcard (also a poem):
Snowflakes of insight accumulate,
Awaiting the avalanche
Of enlightenment.
Postcard for today: Life imitates Art
Life imitates Art illustrated:
You are watching daisies on a screen

Today’s “Artsy” Postcard: BE EGG-CENTRIC
For those who are eccentric, it helps to also be hard boiled if you intend to come out of your shell.
Artsy Postcard of the Day:
Dance is Romance
~ between ~
Space and Time
Evocative imagery paired with expository prose:
Imagine a circle: at eleven o’clock the phrase, “Dance is Romance,” arcs across the top. At eight o’clock and two o’clock are two silhouettes. At eight o’clock stands a long-haired woman in a wide-stance back bend, arms extended gracefully above and behind. From the two o’clock position leaps a lithe male dancer, airborne in a bent-leg ballet jeté, arms also extended, in front and behind .
Between the two silhouettes stretches the word, ~ between ~. The words, “Space and Time,” bend beneath like a chair-rocker at five of the clock to complete the circuit.
This circle of expression floats against a backdrop of mist and above a mist-drenched, tiled courtyard receding in visibility. In the foreground, a glistening cobblestone carriageway frames a stone pedestal planter with a dense spray of pale red blossoms, the only color in this mist (and mystery?) shrouded image.
Artsy Postcard for today:
RESISTANCE = OHM
NO RESISTANCE = OM
OHM and OM: when homonyms become antonyms
Postcard for (an imaginary) tomorrow, because February 28th is as close as we will get to Leap Day in 2021:
Today is Leap Day
Jump for Joy
On this first day of Women’s History Month, today’s postcard/book-cover is:
Fifty Grades of Pay
The TRUE obscenity of women subjugated by income inequity
Naturally, this is a play on the original New York Times Bestseller, Fifty Shades of Grey , by E.L. James, both visually and conceptually.
