Rumi โ€” 'I will soothe you and heal you, I will bring you roses.I too have been covered with thorns.'
And
'For the rest of my life I will search for moments full of you.'
Both watercolours. Both with either gold or silver gouache.

โ€œDragging a ladder through long rows of bookshelves can be exhausting. Itโ€™s much more efficient to have a co-worker whoโ€™s able to reach the top shelves on their own or at least give you a boost climbing up.โ€

Noah Builds the Ark
"Story of Noah' series
Brussels-Brabant, 1563-1566
Tapestry; gold, silver, silk and wool
In 1556, Philip II acquired a set of tapestries that told the story of Noah. However, in 1559 the ship carrying them to Spain sank and only two hangings were saved, so the king ordered another set in 1562. It originally consisted of ten tapestries, only three of which are still extant: one shows God commanding Noah to build the ark, another depicts the disembarkation after the flood, and the third is this scene, where the biblical patriarch is giving his sons instructions on how to build the ark. For the borders, Philip II chose his coats of arms and a few animals alluding to the four elements silhouetted against a landscape in the background, whose painstaking details must have posed quite a technical challenge. This tapestry arrived in Madrid in 1566 and was displayed in emblematic settings like the Monastery of El Escorial.

We read that book in an AP English class circa 2006. My high school brain and experience were not equipped to fully understand it at the time. It would be interesting to revisit given the course society has taken.

A Patreon reward done for me by @jlbriere.boats of my OC Barbara Bobcat, a steampunkish aviatrix that's vaguely connected to the Shadowvixen universe. Might get this colored a bit down the line, as I really love how J.L. gave Barb just the right amount of sexy and sassy alike. :-)
