Seems like this Photoshop class is bringing out my secrets. Today I will confess to liking dead flowers (and yeah, I love them when they are living too!). I put them on my scanner and also take pictures of them. Not all flowers look cool dead, but I especially like tulips as they assume a completely new persona.
I am off to 'The Mall' again today. I haven't talked about this, but an announcement is coming very very soon, word of a new retail and B-I-G classroom space right here in Chesterfield, MO. And lest you think we have left you out if you don't live in STL, there is a gorgeous Drury Inn so close you could throw a rock. So I feel sure you will want to organize your arty get together with us. Stay tuned......
I totally love dead flowers/plants -- mostly when I'm out for walks this time of year. What is that about? I'd like to say it is because I'm embracing the whole circle of life thing...but, truth-be-told, I think it's more of a strange fascination with them...
ReplyDeleteIt's great to find another spirit so fascinated!
Arty get together, huh? hmmm...sounds intriguing!
ReplyDeleteI love dead flowers too....always have and leave them in my kitchen much longer than anyone else I know would....
ReplyDeleteand ummm....hee hee.....I already know about that secret of yours...cause you told me :)
Well, I'll have to show you sometime the dried (meaning dead) flowers I stick in baskets hanging on my kitchen wall. They are old, dusty, and I just keep adding to them when something dries/dies in an interesting way! I think maybe we are a club of more than want to admit to loving dead flowers, leaves, seedpods!!, butterflies, etc.
