Atikokan Pictograph Gallery
Andrea Allison
Ashley Lange’s show "Happiness, a Manner of Travel" continues at the Pictograph Gallery until March 27, Tues.-Sat., noon-3 pm. Her acrylic paintings are a diverse group with thoughtful quotations highlighting various aspects of happiness. Here are a sampling of themes and the accompanying quotes.
NATURE "The pursuit of happiness is a most ridiculous phrase, if you pursue happiness, you’ll never find it." C.P. Snow.
CHILDREN "We’re born to be happy, all of us." Alfred Sutro.
FRIENDSHIP "Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared." Buddha
BEAUTY "Happiness is not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort" Franklin D. Roosevelt.
MEMORIES "Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn, or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude." Denis Haitley.
If these quotes have piqued your interest be sure to stop by the gallery and see the paintings that accompany these quotes. It is amazing how the quotes tie in with the paintings.
