~Song of the Nightingale~

This is How I have been Spending my Time the Last Couple of Days. 

I am Loving the Natural History Look of Her. 

It seems Birds, Butterflies, and Flowers

 are a Reoccurring theme in my Work.

Song of the Nightingale is my Newest Digital Collage Piece.

I wanted to Show you the Before and After
 of Ivy. 
( I like to Name All of My Ladies.)

She started off as a Black and White Etching

 then Evolved into Color. 

I wonder if this is what She may have

 Looked Liked in the Engravers Eye~

Hope you are all Having a Wonderful Weekend!

A Few of My Favorite Things

I Love  Knowing That I am Holding 

a Small Piece of the Past.

It wasn't until I got Older 

that I started to

 Appreciate History .

I some times Wish 

I could take All of my 

High School History Classes

 Over Again 

Because I Think Now 

I would Actually Pay Attention!

  

Do you ever Wonder About 

the History of an Item?

The Journey it made

 to find its way t you?

  

I Wonder if in 1852 

this Godey's Lady's  Book

Was Read by an 

Elegantly Dressed Lady

Sitting in Her Morning Room Sipping Tea.

I am Always Amazed 

at the Beauty 

 and the Details

 of some of these

 Hand Carved

Pieces .

 Hope you All have a Wonderful Weekend!

Thank You for Letting Me Share a

 Few of my Favorite Things!
