deep in a California forest
land of moss and rain
there was a winter party going on
the fungi gathered
to dance and chatter
one of them said: can you imagine living in a Montana forest
earth frozen and cloaked in snow
we could not fruit until spring
all the more reason to gather and celebrate life

winter Salon is our theme this week
offered by our lovely friend Stefanie
I did not know what it meant
I think it is a lovely idea to gather, visit, share and ponder
with one another
Thank you for being our host Stefanie!

Oh Tammie, all that fungi study you've been doing is paying off in a big way in your painting. How gorgeous -- I love these.
ReplyDeleteI think us ourselves are one winter salon! 😉 n💚
ReplyDeleteMushrooms, feathers and pebble stones, none of them I will ever be able to resist. What a lovely idea, what a lovely drawing!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful painting Tammie. Such warmth and gentleness. Only you could interpret a winter salon as a friendly gathering of mushrooms!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely painting,Tammie. I feel like seeing a fairy tale!
ReplyDeleteHappy new week to you!
Oh that's lovely. I've painted so many mushrooms this autumn...lol. So much fun to paint them. They're almost over here on the West Coast, but lucky these California guys! They can party on. :D Next week the AC at my place? <3
