Odds and Ends
Several items I thought might interest you. Frida Kahlo, a favorite of mine One is a new video from Dove soap, straight from the Sundance Film Festival where it "premiered." It's an 8-minute video about an experiment with teen girls, their mothers and cell phone photos called "Selfie." Worthy viewing, I think. My favorite line, from a girl, " Social media is widening the definition of what beauty is." Yes, maybe a good thing out of all these millions of self-photos taken on cell phones is "look at me, I look great/having fun/I matter." You can also show your kids there were always selfies - great artists loved to paint themselves. One link here , another here .
