Good morning!
This is paraphrased from a New Yorker article I read last night. The idea and the way it's expressed stood out for me. I thought you might enjoy it too.
Anyway, the article is about the artist Marina Abramovic, and was written by Judith Thurman.
I find this idea very interesting, not to mention a lot of fun. My Mom and I always had a saying "A pretty woman is an accident, a beautiful woman is a creation all her own." So, this reminded me. It's nice to see someone else making this observation.
Slideshow of Abramovic's Work Here-
also, a MoMA show, entitled The Artist is Present
is on the way, beginning March 10th.
TOTALLY agree with this statement! it's all in how you work it...

I agree. It's just a pretty face. A beautiful mind and body is much more amazing.

So glad you liked this quote...I thought it was really something special. I like the idea of willing oneself to be beautiful... it seems kind of crazy at first... but I do think it's worth trying!
