Aqua botanical

Abstract -- early morning

Cool, arcing bubbles on a hot day

Golden mandala

Evoking the poppies yet to come

Tiled mandala

Stylized oak leaves encircling the essence

Purple as in ...

Purple as in ...

• passion
• crocuses peeking up through crusts of late-winter snow
• royalty
• dark, tender bruises as we wonder how they came to be?
• dark clouds of rain (snow?) on the western horizon
• hyacinths with their over-fragrant proclamations of SPRING IS HERE!

This image/mandala reminds me of purply CDs that hold mysteries of sweet music and storytelling. I post this celebrating my daughter's birthday TODAY. Happy Birthday, Carolina!
