Alphonse Mucha's Influence: Sarah Bernhardt: Ashbourne: My gift to the town

In the year 1895, the Czechoslovakian artist Alphonse Maria Mucha rose to dizzying heights of stardom. The design for the advertising poster for the Fifth Avenue, Broadway theatre production of Gismonda that opened on December 11th and ran until February 1895 would be the making of him. This prototypical production starred the then young and stunning actress Sarah Bernhardt and Lucien Guitry as Almerio. My first encounter with Mucha’s work was at a very young age. I would spend many hours with my grandmother, chatting and looking at magazines and books. One afternoon we sat in her large sunny bedroom, the light from the wide bay window making the flowers on the Sanderson wallpaper dance and sing. And if my memory serves me well, Granny opened up a magazine that was running a feature on the works of Alphonse Mucha. Those moments come rarely, do they not, when your heart flutters with delight at what you see before you in a picture. I was captured by the patterns, colors, flowers, and

Friday Inspiration For YOU!

So you have a dream, a goal, you know, ambition... And in your head, you have a little voice, the self-help author Susan Jeffers termed The Chatter Box. Saying all sorts of negative things. Such as For example, you are not good enough. Others will laugh at you. You are too thick, fat, and many other things to distract you Well, we are going to reply to that voice with this: l accept where l am. I go forward in joy. I will take a step every day towards my dream. So what if those ill-qualified, self-proclaimed judges want to judge me...means nothing to me I am a person who takes action! I don't care if I am not perfect, it's ok to be competent, content, learning, and moving forward. My dreams are my dreams and l shall, without waiting for approval, start painting that vision...with action.

Simon And Garfunkel: Lyric Theatre: Lyrics are handy in certain situations.

The world of music is like a lyric theatre. From the 12 days of Christmas lyrics to The Pogue's, Fairytale of New York lyrics, you then think of the lyrics to Delilah, which everyone knows, and you wonder why you managed to remember so many! And they also come in handy as you know. Your favourite lyrics can come in handy at many given moments and as you quote them, can really change situations. And then I hear you say, how Tiggy, what are you on about? Well, let me take you back to the 80s and to my school days in Buckinghamshire. I was lucky enough to go to what some might say was a progressive school. We attended a school that others might say has had a lot of interesting things happen that end up in the national press. And they would be right! In my day though, my secondary school was out there. No, it wasn’t just out there on the cutting edge. We were, what some might consider, orbital… We had English lessons outside, parquet flooring and Persian rugs and more freedom t

Toxic Abuse: When The Fog Clears

Tiggy Sonya !: So, why a blog Tiggy? Some of us just have to write. My childhood nieghbour Roald Dahl encouraged my passion, picked me up from the library, read my poetry, and stories, and discussed Dickens with me. Asked me at the age of six if I would understand War and Peace, Tolstoy, and I replied, “I intend to read it until I do”, and I did. Why not write a blog about all sorts of subjects that are connected through communication? I have 3 blogs that you can reach from the front page. https://linktr.ee/SonyaTiggy?utm_source
