Thursday Coffee Hour: Oscar Wilde and Dreamers (An Art Diary)

Cross Posted from Street Prophets)

Welcome to Thursday Coffee Hour. This is an open topic thread so help yourself to the goodies and sit a spell and let us know what is new in your life. If I had to choose an historical person to go back in time and meet I would probably choose Oscar Wilde. There is something fascinating about him and he intrigues me. Ever since I read The Picture of Dorian Grey I have been a fan of his. I use one of his quotes as a signature line.

“A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.” Oscar Wilde

I realize that as a night owl I see the moon a lot and an occasional sunrise since I’m usually asleep when the sun comes up. I do use those times a lot in my art. So in honor of Oscar Wilde here are moons and sunrises.
