I really liked WindSong and it was suggested by different people in both places. HOWEVER I came up with one out of left field; "Birch Keys" I like the play on words and had always wanted to include "birch" in the title as those trees have bark that is just like paper when you peel it. I can remember doing this a lot as a kid growing up in New England! Thanks for all your input. I am going to put the next landscape up soon.Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785958267715615197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690400023329277323.post-36750922429457253722010-08-10T09:33:17.620-04:002010-08-10T09:33:17.620-04:00Kimberly says that folks, because she has been try...Kimberly says that folks, because she has been trying her hand at collage and knows what a difficult medium it can be. Especially since she is an amazing painter, and it can be frustrating to go from being a master at one medium, to a beginner at another. But do not be fooled, her collage work is LOVELY!Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785958267715615197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690400023329277323.post-30269126295018568112010-08-09T22:21:26.143-04:002010-08-09T22:21:26.143-04:00absolutely in awe here. brain has shut off, jaw is...absolutely in awe here. brain has shut off, jaw is on the ground.

Forest Music, Tree songs. They make me think of the whisperings of branches dancing in the wind that I hear when I walk through the forest, songs that the trees sing for each other as they bow and sway to their own symphony of sound.Jo Reimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17381636308808299868noreply@blogger.com
