Thanks Emma, Have you ever seen a flannel flower seed? They’re shaped like spearheads. And then their downy texture reminds me of Indigenous Totems or Crystal Wizard Wands.

Was quite painstaking to place each one of them in the direction they needed to go * To the centre.

So dynamic! Graceful and exiciting arrangement – I love it.

Thanks Melissa, These collages were such fun to do * Wonderful to watch them grow as they told me what they wanted.

Feels like a story being told, just beautiful :>

Thanks Plum, Yes * I’m not always aware of the story as the work is forming * Just have a sense of where the different elements need to be placed. And then afterwards so many meanings can be seen.
