When clouds appear like rocks and towers,
The earth’s refreshed by frequent showers.

A leaf of grass is no less than the journey-work of the stars...
Walt Whitman (1819 – 1892)
No pessimist ever discovered the secrets of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land,
or opened a new heaven to the human spirit.
Helen Keller (1880 – 1968)
Your art is so magical! These are stunning. Love the colors in them and the sense of playfulness!
Are these photos of some bead work? I love bead work. I have a whole drawer of beads I have never done anything with. I love to get them out occasionally and look at them. Some day I will know what to do with them.
Happy New Year to you..
These are so unique and beautiful! I love them.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Showers from heaven wash one’s impurity. Renew and purify are the words. Thanks for this wonderful treat with this incredibly stunning great artwork.
The details with little sequins and threads are a playful way to show renewal here.
Happy New Year 2009! Just past 2008 here:)
