artwords: literature

This week's prompt at Artwords is literature. Here's Beatrix Potter with Peter Rabbit, one of her many friends. Beatrix lived her life by her own light when it wasn't easy to do so...not sure it is now, actually.

If you have a warm spot in your heart for Peter...or Jemima Puddleduck...or any of the rest of them, read Linda Lear's biography of this admirable woman, Beatrix Potter: A life in Nature, AND see the movie "Miss Potter," sweet, sad, uplifting, inspiring...
