Kindred Spirits







This is for all of us who love the story of Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery. I believe I was 15 years old when I was first introduced to the world of Anne Shirley and her dearest friend Diana Barry. I painted my version of their first encounter on 4" X 4" textured canvas using pastels & acrylic paints.

    Yes, I NEED to be the first to comment about these Anne and Diana! I LOVE the books, the movies, everything. Makes me want to go and get a glass of raspberry cordial this very instant! I was younger than you when I discovered them on PBS and after reading the book, I was obsessed with collecting dollies for when I was married! lol Absolutely magnificent Lisa! Way to Go!
    Did you know that after the television series, they made another movie? It didn't follow the book, so it wasn't a big hit, but it had the original characters. Megan Follows will always be Anne to me!

    Thank you for reminding me Lisa! My Lillian has yet to be introduced to these kindred spirits! :)
