Default Tasha Tudor

I was more or less pondering about matters of frugality when I suddenly remembered about Tasha Tudor. She is, without question, one of the most inspirational woman I've ever known.

Some of you may already know who she is, but in case you don't, here is a nice biography on her.

This link will show you some of her original artworks being sold to art buffs everywhere. (Yes, the prices they fetch is truly frightening. )

Last but not least, Tasha doesn't just illustrate an idyllic life, but lives in it as well. It's so pretty, I'm just going to inline it.



Oh, and I just want to clarify that she's not one of those trust fund babies. She has worked hard all her life, with her bare hands, to create the world she wanted to live in.

I don't know if I want exactly the kind of life she lives in (I like technology too much ), but she is unquestionably inspirational.

An uncompromising life of simple beauty and truth. Poor words to describe something so joyful and wonderous. A lesson to be heard and learned. Peaceful living in action! It was a pleasure to read about such a unique person!

Sounds like she and her husband split up somewhere along the way cus there's no mention of him joining her in Vermont.
