Time
(For Mary, who will turn 60 next week)
A very small collage/painting for a special friend.
"One of the signs of passing youth
is the birth of a sense of fellowship with other human beings
as we take our place among them."
-- Virginia Woolf
The word "T I M E" in this small collage is divided in "IT" and "ME".
There's also a shape of the face of a clock,
which reminds you to live all the days of your life.
Part of the text of this clock is:
"Time is too slow for those who wait,
too swift for those who fear,
too long for those who grieve,
too short for those who rejoice,
but for those who love, time is eternity."
-- Henry Van Dyke
