My Boots, photography by VIVA Anderson,....Still Life,Symbolism.....abstract
My Boots, give me pause for thought..
I celebrate them now, because they are old, decrepit, not waterproof,
and have outlived their usefulness,
much like myself, I suppose....and must be retired.
I will wrap you in my beautiful silk scarf, to enhance your journey, sigh ...
There is such symbolism about retiring one's boots, letting go of what you
counted on without question, until the day when they disintegrate, the
way one feels at the end of any affair of the heart, body, soul. Herein this
photograph are my boots that were ~ goodbye old reliables.
You cannot be replaced, ya know.........
"A lie can make it half way round the world before the truth has time
to put its boots on."............Mark Twain
"These boots were made for walking, that's just what they will do.
One of these days, these boots will walk all over you.".....
Nancy Sinatra
Isaiah 9:5 For every boot of the man of war with his sounding step, and the clothing rolled in blood, will be for burning, food for the fire.

Your boots live on in this magnificent photo/art piece. They don’t look that old! They just have great character! Ah those boots…the stories they could tell. Wonderful!

Purple, gold...a touch of Red... Your boots may be worn, VIVA but you infuse them still with the Colours of Royalty and Divinity...A fitting Tribute to Memoir and Gratitude...to your second skin of journey on the Artist Way! Even empty and in still life, they have poise and style, with a certain “sass”...bold boots, Vivian. So wonderfully offered...LF
VIVA Anderson replied:
Laurel....NOW their life is fulfilled with humble thanks for your connecting deeply,again,to my intent,and for your glorious analogies to my symbolism....Thank You especially...xx VIVA
