Backside of .....

my amaryllis!

I've been patiently awaiting this lovely bud to open, and it did....partly yesterday afternoon, but this moring it was fully open! and i don't like it!!!! I was so excited because the package said it was a 'double flower' and white with some pink....well it's just too loud and pointy and brash looking....how can i not love this flower? It is an interesting thing this anticipation.....maybe i'll come t love other aspects of it's bright and stripey petals...i spent some time photographing it from different angles, and decided i loved this paler, pinkish hue from the backside....i love this image and i love the soft curves.....so i'll just keep looking at it from behind!!!

It rained all night, and it is still lashing down....dreary and nasty out there and i can feel it affecting my mood! but when i really analyse things, i have no need to be outside all day - mind you a walk would be wonderful - but when you get right down to it...things are pretty comfortable here! warm and cosy, dogs by the fire, Terry doing stuff on his computer, me trying to do some research into glaze formulations....always a hard place to start when i don't really know what i'm looking for! Inspiration is what i'm looking for...i'm going to get back into the studio next week so i am starting to rev myself up a bit!!!

back to some books !
