An Artist's Creations

My friend Gudrun is an amazing artist of many mediums. Here are some of her latest creations. She makes these wool capes, with wool crewel work embroidery, that you will never see anything else like. I adore her whimsical style. The cape is an ode to the evolution of Birds which includes the flying dinosaur (dragon) and the dino-chicken. 
 Her sculptures are of paper mache. I hope you enjoy her creations as much as I do.

Happy Thanksgiving and World Compassion Day!

Happy Thanksgiving and World Compassion Day! Compassion is what brings us together in unity and harmony, overcoming all forms of discrimination. World Compassion Day is based on the concept of ahimsa. It means non-violence and absence of desire to harm Any life forms, dedicated to animal welfare, compassion towards all living things on the planet, and the growing importance of vegetarianism and veganism. I am grateful for Nature and all of her Beauty and wonder.
