“I love color. It must submit to me. And I love art. I kneel before it, and it must become mine. Everything around me glows with passion. Every day reveals a new red flower, glowing, scarlet red.

And they are like poppies just opening, of which one can see only here and there a hint of red petal peeking out from the green bud.” HeartArtPassionMinesColorFlowerRedGreenOpeningCarrieSubmitHere And ThereHintsBudGlowingPetalsScarletPoppiesPeeking Author:Paula Modersohn-Becker
