Feathers Filled my Week

she could have chosen any sort of hair

hair of spider webs and dew drops

hair of pine cones or leaves

but she

wanted

feathers

~

this week i have been drawing feathers

last week painting feathers

i am surprised i am not dreaming of feathers

*

these sketches were done with a pen

no pencil

i remember when my sketches would have more erasing than drawing ;-)

so it is quite wonderful to sit with a pen

and enjoy the process

and results

Feather Clan

the other day
at a farmer's market
i saw a little old man
perhaps 90 years of age and more
carrying two long feathers
so much taller than him
immediately i began this sketch
perhaps in another he was an elf

Lady of the Tree

said the lady of the tree

to the bird that flew to she

I will be your home

standing strong within the ground

yet pliable with wind and sound

I will hold your nest

nurture to my best

please sing for me

walking in the woods

mamma duck made a mad dash away

from me and the base of a tree
