To Ellen


This blog is made to the honor of my grandmother Ellen Elisabeth Thomsen who was a modern woman .
She was born in Randers in Denmark 1895 and died in Copenhagen 1976.
She had long salmon red hair down to her hips. It was braided and put up with lots of hairpins to make it look short.

Red haired women with flowers



Aron Wiesenfeld
American contemporary



We women often lie around in flowers and rose petals, I do it 3 times a day!!! Well seriously, I think men are
sweet with their Romantic dreams.When we fill washing machines wash dirty pots and pans  and dry behinds on small kids from a dirty deeper, they still imagine us half naked in Rose petals! So this post is about redheads and this flower fantasy in all it's many expressions.

Constant  Montald

Natalia Goncharova







Clara Weaver Parrish
"The red lily"



It is not easy to place the hands so they look natural, several of this painters had a
problem they could have solved better! I think they got kind of confused whether to express
tenderness,  shyness or just hold those flowers. It seems rather theatrical  
or directly wrong in some of the paintings.I guess it was so difficult for some,
 that they just chose not to show the hands! Problem solved!

Paul Berthon

Dame Laura Knight
1877-1970
A very broad spectated artist
A very good Artist! Her motifs change all the time and they are very powerful,
 often seen from an unusual angle.
She has very few pictures with a main figure attention
There is nothing feminine about the way she paints.
She deserves the extra Dame!
