Oh! I love this piece. I started out with a soft dreamy portrait and something about her just begged for a spring treatment. I envisioned a lullaby in pastels and this is what sprang forth. Though there are things I'd change next time 'round (technically speaking), I really enjoyed this piece and must admit every time I look at her she fills me with peace. She's titled "Possible Gardens" and is the embodiment of potential.
Aimee and Silas once again ran with the project in their own respective directions. I just dig the moment of handing over the physical collage knowing something magical and surprising is forthcoming. It's like Christmas.
Here's Silas's first piece, entitled "In Flight"
And because I begged for it, Silas made another piece, entitled Eoster. I admit here that while collaging my piece something about her reminded me of the Renaissance Madonna. Seemed like a grand idea to let The Mother return to her Pagan roots to support fertility, new life and the spirit of spring.
Eoster:
And Aimee's smack! Which kept true to the intended spirit of airy possibilities and and hopes of the future. Her's is entitled "Wild Blue Yonder" and don't it just make you want to fly, fly away?
