One day I had this vision of stories appearing from the buds of flowers … And then I sat down and made a wee book, the tiniest I’ve ever made. I fashioned a pod-like flower from repurpose copper and inserted the wee book and a pen nib inside. The pod is the writer, and from within him a story is born. I added 3 tiny seeds. They will be the Seed of Passion, the Seed of Imagination and the Seed of Artistry. And that … is how stories are born.
This Mixed Media piece combines repurpose copper and brass wires augmented by fire, stained lace, sari fibers, chains, findings, Jaspers, Howlites, a pen nib and a handmade wee book of rustic leather and coffee stained pages.
