Taken for Granted

I have a tatty collection of flotsam and jetsam found at the beach and dumped just outside my studio door. I love my little treasures but go past them dozens of times every day without giving them a thought. Time to look carefully and to appreciate the textures and patterns created by a combination of the forces of nature and the forces of bugs and creatures unknown.

  2. I seem to have such a collection as well, I have no doubt my children will dump it all eventually, but I love it.

  4. I love the 'ratty tatty' stuff- the wabi sabi stuff- weathered, worn, broken, torn, sun bleached, knotty, holey and dried out.. looks like treasure to me.

  5. I see these images in your work Noela. You certainly know how to channel your inspiration.
