Forbes Fine Art Studio

Forbes Fine Art Studio “Not far from home is where Isabel finds her inspiration to paint." http://isabelforbes.com/ I enjoy finding the beauty in the commonplace and the overlooked.

It is my hope that you too will see the beauty in the obvious as well as the mediocre and that your heart will be touched as mine was.

Today we’d like to introduce you to Isabel Forbes. Hi Isabel, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself. I grew up in Spartanburg, SC in a time when kids could ride their bikes around the neighborhood, wander around nearby woods and play “Kick the Can” or “Roll the Bat” with fri...

Georgia O’Keeffe. Discovered her in 1977 on a PBS tv doc. She showed me it was possible to be a woman artist. It was a dream to travel & camp in her Abiquiu NM area & feel her spirit then to go inside her home & studio. When she passed away at 98 her ashes were spread on this mountain- the Cerro Pedernal.

The Snow

It sifts from leaden sieves,
It powders all the wood,
It fills with alabaster wool
The wrinkles of the road.
It makes an even face
Of mountain and of plain, ?
Unbroken forehead from the east
Unto the east again.
It reaches to the fence,
It wraps it, rail by rail,
Till it is lost in fleeces;
It flings a crystal veil
On stump and stack and stem, ?
The summer's empty room,
Acres of seams where harvests were,
Recordless, but for them.
It ruffles wrists of posts,
As ankles of a queen, ?
Then stills its artisans like ghosts,
Denying they have been.

Water is taught by thirst;
Land, by the ocean passed;
Transport, by throe;
Peace, by its battles told;
Love, by memorial mould;
Birds, by the snow.

“to live in this world

you must be able
to do three things
to love what is mortal;
to hold it

against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go”
