The Beaded Tree…

November 16, 2012 · 6 Comments

I hope you will go out and let stories happen to you,

… and that you will work them, water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, 
till you yourself burst into bloom.
– Clarissa Pinkola Estes

    Lisa, I love your picture of The Beaded Tree, and the quotes are fabulous too! Clarissa Pinkola Estes is one of my favourite authors and storytellers of all time! <3 xx

    Your beaded tree is spectacular Lisa. I love the swirls and how they all dance together. I also loved reading the quotes to go with it. xo

    My god, your tree is amazing. I adore it. I adore, adore the quote, too.

    I find trees very symbolic – especially blossoming ones – so thank you for this. It’s very meaningful.

Art Statement

When I take the time to look and to really see and to apply my "foolish" imagination, there are worlds within worlds within worlds to be discovered.

When I allow my eyes to be excited and fascinated and pleased at what they see, I begin a journey, inventing a path to the place I choose to go; and magic happens!
