Love the colors and subject matter!; June 2, 2009 at 12:17 PM

so much detail in such a small space - lovely!

Oh - I've started my own dried flowers - I'm smashing a rose and a bleeding hearts stem with three blooms as I write!; June 2, 2009 at 3:00 PM

Ann said...: like i say..YOU ARE THE ART GODDESS!! This is a beautiful piece and I just love how you used the"back" of the canvas for the front of your art. I'm going to have to start looking at a lot of things with a fresh eye..fronts aren't always the front and backs are often better as a front. I love your mind !!!; June 2, 2009 at 8:07 PM
