Thanks for your comment. When I heard her story, it just called to me .... all that determination and passion and talent. For 50 years she persisted in doing what she wanted to do ...
Marta lives on! I'm so thrilled you learned all about her and wrote this post! She inspires me. Without her, the Imaginative Storm would be a tempest in a teacup.
That was.. enchanting - and it moved me to my soul. How wonderful you got to meet her - and here you are. inspiring us! And your love of Hesse comes to mind - how Marta created her very own 'Magic Theatre!' So uplifting and inspiring, Joyce. Thank you!
Such an incredible and inspiring story, Joyce. I heard of her a while back and the younger ballerina who stepped in for her. Love that she performed for herself. The opera house is stunning and that she painted it all. Talk about a multi/creative.
No doubt, she is part of your own artistic inspiration and fascination with the beauty and stories of the murals and places you want to visit and revisit.
What an intriguing story this is. I wonder how many people have this kind of passion, dedicating their lives to doing art for no one. Amazing.
That's exactly why she fascinates me so much.
Thank you for sharing this inspiring story about a remarkable woman. How did you decide to write about her, what's the connection?

A truly successful person to have the guts to pursue her wishes.
Joyce, this is fabulous! What a spirit! We can certainly learn from Marta! 💜
Think I'm going to head out to Death Valley and learn more and see the opera house. She is haunting me.
Sounds wonderful! After Mexico?

I can't thank you enough for sharing the story. I'm making a trip out there soon ... maybe next week.

I liked what I saw and read just so you know
We Sat up in bed with our tea on this rainy morning and enjoyed Marta's inspiring story. Thanks for taking us on a little field trip! 😉
Now, I wanna go on a real field to Amargosa ... ready for a road trip? HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
