as metyphor...citrus, the sweet and the sour, the lime and the orange...
I may be putting my head in the sand but have chosen to savor the orange sky...the mandarin orange
it's a path we all journey down...trying to find the grace and savor the sweet.
Finding joy in the unexpected gifts of a family pulling together...
sending light and fierce strength to both my dad and to my friend Rebecca
as if on cue...the Amaryllis is blooming
to lift my spririts from sadness to hopefullness
my sweet dad has a long road of recovery ahead...but my spirits are blooming
3x3...or 6
x1...the Goddess comes to the forefront
then recedes again
For over a month the Mango Studio has been a flutter with Monarchs...stamping, painting...
on coffee filters and tin...
and finally
the Methusaleh Goddess...photographing her in her full glory has been a challenge, still figuring that one out.
I believe we'll gather to view postcards...even though Rebecca is off BLOOMING in San Miguel
So many kindred souls...finding no boundaries in forming their worlds around their fantastic imaginations. I have experienced tile mosaic environments in the US at the Magic Gardens in Philadelphia and being inside Gaudi's futuristic mind in Barcelona...
in Mexico in the amazing tile world of Anado....
the images here are some that Mr R shares of an amazing tile environment in Cuba
a conversation
an intimate look within
kindred souls ignite
more haiku here
Finding JOY...nuff said
I would highly recommend...gathering some friends to play with paint...
some of us were out of town...
some had other commitments...but Char and I spent a couple hours together...painting
Char's beautiful couple that echo and compliment her sculpture
I was painting big poppy seed pods on red rosin paper that remind me of a little family...
this is a new year's resolution we won't break.
