Feathers and Flowers


Have completed and photographed an acrylic painting of flowers with the repeated feathery edges as feathers. There are so many repeated patterns and rhythms in nature. That is the connection of my faith and art. How do we have such precise mathematical configurations in nature if all is haphazard and not by a grand design? The show coming in October is Rhythms and Patterns of Nature put on by the Arts of the Covenant. This is an ecumenical group of those who wish to express faith intersecting art.

The flower is called "Daneborg Poppy" and it grows to 4 feet with lots of twists and turns. It was a real "find" at the nursery.
