IMAGINATION SOARING...

NOVEMBER 30th

IMAGINATION:
"The more we see, the more we must be able to imagine; the more we imagine, the more we must think we see."       
                                                    Gotthold Ephraim Lessing


How many times have you seen a rock, log or tree stump in the distance and thought it was something else?  Admittedly, I do it all the time. May I attribute my faulty perceptions to aging eyes?  When recently in Uganda, I happened upon a large patch of tree trunks and logs, decaying, due to elephant and/or flood damage. My imagination started working, seeing all the things they resembled (to me!) I thought  "I MUST DO SOMETHING WITH THESE."  Finally, I have... this is some of my TREE STUMP ART. Can you see the stumps and logs beneath my creations?

Thanks for looking...what d'ya think?

See you soon...XOX,
