Silke truly lives an Artful Life in every sense of the word, be it in her weaving of ribbons into the most beautiful scarves,

(yes, Silke, I stole your photo)

Woman MemoriesOr her fabulous paintings of strong, gentle women, which is how I think of Silke . . . a gentle strength.

 Silke creates art in her garden, with her camera, and with her home.

Silke is DeLovely.

It is my privilege to call her Sisterfriend.

I am most grateful for her presence here on this little blue planet, and on this, the Day of her Birth,

I dance and celebrate the

Joy of knowing Silke.

Happy Happy Birthday, Beautiful One
