Introducing 'Dear Flora' ...

12

To all of you who visit here
and who may also be on Facebook,
I have recently launched an artist page :


I hope you'll visit me there!
Come have a look-see, maybe take part in the conversations
or just say "Hey"...



What's in a name?
Dear Flora  is my open love letter to the world of plants & my relationship with her ...
and it isn't a name only for Facebook
but one I'll be putting with the things I make as well.

Its flight time.  I need to share this evolution that's so astoundingly
taken my heart by storm.


I think I've been kin to that wrapped up, tied tight, bundle above ....

and yet what I really need to do is let loose some.  Sway with those breezes
that do such fine things with silks when they're out in the open air.


Silk -  strong and soft at the same time.

:::

See you soon.

  3. Hi Christi
    I'll follow your new page. I always love to see what you are doing, and what you do WITH it. Though natural dying is not my thing I love seeing the results you get, and your photography is so soothing. You make wonderful visual art.
    xx, Carol

    1. We've been at this internet thing together for many moons now, eh Carol? Going similar ways, than branching off towards other directions & still stopping by each other's spots from time to time ... good stuff. Good history. I so appreciate that - and you. I'll see you around!
