Week #7 - Hanging Out In Seattle
The long weekend provided me with the perfect excuse to hop on a plane and head out of town to the Seattle area to visit my son who recently moved up to the Pacific Northwest. Saturday was raining so we headed into Seattle to check out the Conservatory in Volunteer Park. The Conservatory is small but had a good collection of plants and flowers. They are offering free entrance through the month of February. If you are in the area I would recommend a visit.
Some images I took as I focused on lines, patterns, and shapes.
Lines on the leaves
Circular patterns
Circles and lines
Week #6 - Staying Amused on a Rainy Day
“Behind the cotton wool is a hidden pattern... the whole world is a work of art... there is no Shakespeare.... no Beethoven ... no God; we are the words; we are the music; we are the thing itself.”
Virginia Woolf

Week #5 The Simplicity of Nature
“Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.”
