well , for me THIS http://www.streetsie.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Broken-Column.jpg would HAVE to be the tower , it would just have to.

I remember being a child and seeing this in an old magazine cover , and staring at it for hours when I got back to school , and asking my mother what was it? why was she crying ? what had happened to her? etc. she of course would give answers a kid would understand without paying much attention, wich of course only confused me and left me thinking about it even more. this painting was probably my first encounter with art , and I am sure it has left it's mark on my soul. even now as I look at it... I feel exactly the same way , Im transported to that moment I first saw it and my mind rushes with questions, theories, but most importantly feelings.

I owe frida a lot.

...a dr seuz would be fun but it'd have to include some quptes from the book in the iumage too =P dont you think? haha

We think a lot alike!! - I had thought of the SAME card for the tower - The accident that she had as a teen did shape her life, drove her you might say. I can't imagine the pain she lived with all those years - and probably that was the reason she died so young. However, she does have a painting of a woman falling from a tall building, I think it was about a suicide of someone she knew?? I love her work. Though I don't always find her paintings beautiful, they are so full of emotion, so feeling, as you say. She was a very important painter.

Hmm..Dr. Suess...yes, you'd most certainly have to have the quotes - like for the Tower: "I'm sorry to say, yes, it's sad but so true, that bang-ups and hang-ups can happen to you!"

...for the World: "And will you succeed, yes indeed, yes indeed! Ninety-eight and three quarters percent guaranteed!"

Or for the Fool: "If you never did, you should, these things can be fun and fun is good!"

....hehe!!...I could go on and on...
