Visit to modern 2 for the Steve McQeen Resistance show - Wow! amazing to see so much protest and calls for social change documented. Very well put together and both shocking and uplifting … memories of some of those protests too…stunning to think we still need to challenge the racist right…

Picket Fire is a small literary press, but I have no idea how to use Blue Sky or how to find people on here. So if #writers #authors #readers and anyone related to the #writingcommunity or #books community could help by sharing this post, that would be excellent.

The Solfege https://www.wikiart.org/en/pierre-bonnard/the-solfege-1917
"The Solfege" by Pierre Bonnard captures an intimate moment of a young girl engrossed in musical study, her reddish hair softly illuminated. Bonnard’s use of subdued hues and soft brushwork creates a warm, contemplative atmosphere typical of his sensitive portrayal of everyday scenes.
