    a truly remarkable tribute to a person whom contributed thoughts that strengthen us, as a whole, with our differences accepted – sharing the purity of TRUTH.

    Tammy, I know her husband contributed greatly to the study of Egyptology, but Isha supported him greatly. I have spent hours trying to find a photograph of her and can’t find one! It makes me very sad that such a wonderful woman is not remembered. This is a small token for her and feel I will dedicate a series to her and her wonderful insights. I hope you’re having a restful Sunday? Thinking of you!Sx

    Oh Sophie! This is beautiful. It feels like a triptych, Jungle (on the left), Undersea (middle), and Steppes (right). Beauty shot through as only you can Sophie…

    Hi Sophie I am rather scattered today. I am finishing up the jelly and baking bread.Smile and trying to do some art in between. Had a problem with people yesterday to much coming in!! I went out and people just have to touch,hug etc. Far to much input.

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    Vickie, take a little time for yourself! It’s very important to replenish your energies. I hope you have a very good week and find time for yourself! Thinking of you!Sx

    Beautiful colours Sophie….I especially love the malachite green (Egyptians used this rock ground up for makeup). Such amazing 3D effects. Reminds me of an underground cavern full of crystals with a beautiful waterfall! Mysterious and refreshing!

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    Kathie, the Egyptian theme has been with me for quite some time now. They don’t seem to want to leave and I am compelled to paint night and day! There must be something in the air. I have been doing alot of research and there is just so much to learn! Thank you for your wonderful comment, I hope you have a wonderful week…My Dear Friend thinking of you, as always!Sx
