Studying details in the photos I took on a cold winter day.
And in this one I love the popped open pods on one of my crape myrtles, the burst-open shape of them. So I used that theme to alter an old velvet millinery leaf for this art piece. See how the sweet lady is blooming now.
I'm really having fun with this. You should try it.






Oh so lovely! You art is like a breath of fresh air:)

I followed some links also and found your blog. I love the thoughtful placement of objects that appear to have been discarded and no longer thought about. All of the work I see on your blog is spectacular. Lots of great eye candy. Very inspiring!
