Angel,' (1887) is both a portrait of Abbott Handerson Thayer's 11 year old daughter Mary and an allegory of hope and spirituality. Thayer scraped the paint with backs of brushes, scrapers, his fingers, and a paint tube to achieve the depth in the wings.

In the "Wild Swans" the youngest prince doesn't receive his nettle shirt in time. So his left arm remains a swan wing forever. A reminder that sometimes we can't just go back to who we used to be. We have to go forward, changed by everything that touched us.

Seeing the fractal patterns of plants (even on a screen) shifts our brain activity from fight or flight to rest & digest due to ancient foraging pathways that are still very active in modern humans.

The number of confirmed #measles cases in the US this year — an unknown fraction of the true total — has hit 800, per #CDC, making this the 2nd worst year for measles since the virus was eliminated in 2000. And the year is young.
The count in Texas is just under 600. www.cdc.gov/measles/data...
