Stories Collected While Living in France
A French antique folding fan. Hand painted on canvas. A young woman with a simple black ribbon tied flirtatiously, leans against a stone railing. Waiting… and gives a hint of a smile.
Behind each fold the scene is told. The story begins by unfolding little by little…
a mystery… waiting to be discovered…
that is so pretty.
i wish i could find some french antique furniture here that i can actually afford!
Life is a series of new beginnings.
Every picture tells a story.
I am your biggest fan.
I love you

Lovely fan! I´m a fan of your blog to! What is it with things from France and the french language, it goes right in to my heart! I´ve been to Paris a couple of times and I adore it, especially the fleamarkets
;-). Next travel of my dreams would be to Provence! A dream place for an artist!
so pretty
Yes so what happens next to the pretty lady ?…
i love the mysterious allure of ladies’ fans…what a way to flirt 😉
nice object. but how clever of the person who made it: allowing the story to unfold in each fold.

I love this image ~ makes me think of the gentle breezes created when we take the risk of opening ourselves to the world around us.
She sees a horse drawn carriage coming up the lane. Her heart goes pitty-pat because she knows that inside the carriage is her true love. He is bringing her a sumptuous bouquet of flowers and chocolates. She feels a bit of remorse as she doesn’t know if she is looking more forward to seeing her love or the gift of the chocolates.
Yes, it does unfold, doesn’t it? But sometimes not without a rip in the fabric . . .
How very pretty Corey!
Thanks for sharing,
Rosemary
