Georgia O'Keeffe I'm Not

I adore her paintings. I can stand before one and lose myself in dreams of possiblities. What do you see when you see these?




The one above reminded me of a scene I watch grow each day as I do the dishes -

This time, when I saw this, rather than dream about the obvious, I was reminded of some super giant needles I bought at a yard sale. I got to thinking about colors and textures and I remembered that I had some super bulky mohair boucle that I bought at Rhinebeck -
