"Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing" --Camille Pissarro

I saw this quote on the blog of a wonderful artist, Allegra. http://beadingstars.blogspot.com/

It says so perfectly what I was trying to say about the photos for today's blogpost. I was trying to find some kind of quote or anectdote about the patterns we see in everyday life... how we tend to not really see them... because we see them all the time, and so they become invisible.

All the photos for today's blog were taken of buildings on Gold Ave in downtown ABQ.
