Dancing Dragonflies

Dancing Dragonflies

As I was strolling through our Garden with the Camera around my neck, I was almost hit in the head by a pair of Colourful Dragonflies procreating in a mid air dance. Suddenly, they must have decided to rest and they flew into a small persimmon Tree to rest. I was so excited to be able to capture this Image! It shows right frontal brain humour at it's best!

RED is the color of our Life Blood.

My Passion for Flowers is well known by those that are closest to me. IRIS Flowers are actually a flower of HOPE and they have a sweet scent. In my Life, I am always pushing mySelf further with my clay art. This Piece was actually an experiment with stained glass and glazes that fortunately turned out. Traded to my VET for $175 worth of beloved CAT care.

Love Grows in my Garden. (IRIS)

Love Grows in my Garden. (IRIS)

Reduced price. Iris is a flower that symbolizes great Hope and beauty to me. We first encountered mass numbers of them on a Honeymoon visit to OREGON. There were so many colors and varieties. It intrigued me to discover that they have a sweet and unique fragrance. I can grow almost anything, except Iris! We are simply too hot and humid in south Mississippi. We do have a native variety that is lovely. These Pieces have melted stained glass in the Flower that is melted on the second firing.

Praying Mantis on Moonflower with Moth and Moon

Praying Mantis on Moonflower with Moth and Moon

It amazed me that I was able to capture this image. When I came home that night, I discovered the mantis on the moonflower with the moon in the background. I told Chris the only thing that would make the picture "perfect" was IF a moth flew by when I captured that moment. Honestly, then a moth appeared and I happen to take the picture at exactly the best moment.

Caterpillar on citrus tree

Caterpillar on citrus tree

The first time that I spotted this odd, grey and white caterpillar, I was shocked when I gently touched it and it seemed to stick out its tongue. Actually it emits a sour smell when it does this as a defense to communicate it is unpleasant to eat. Although it devours my citrus trees leaves, I feel there is more than enough and I let it live. It makes such a beautiful butterly eventually!

Praying mantis on moonflower with Moth

Praying mantis on moonflower with Moth

One night when Chris and I came home a bit late, I spotted this beautiful praying mantis on the moonflower with the moon in the background. I mentioned to Chris that the only way the picture could be more "perfect" was if a night moth flew by when I took the picture. He laughed at me and said: "Yeah, right." So, inside I went to grab my camera and when I went back outside to capture some images, I was blown away and delighted to see perfection! Somehow that moth did show up and fortunately he did not become a snack for the mantis that night!

Ode to Flow (Dec. 6th, 2008)

Ode to Flow (Dec. 6th, 2008)

This piece came forth easily today as I moved into the Feeling of a recent dream. In it I could SEE these large clay Iris sculptures. After working thru a block, I was able to step out of the way and allow this piece to literally come forth from a Dream. Many thanks to Lana Chu for her inspiration in helping me re-member. Her work may be seen at artspan as well. See links section of my site. This piece will have melted Glass in certain areas IF it makes it to that point. Clay teaches me to enJOY the process and not be terribly attached to outcome. I did LOVE the process.
