Life imitates art?

My recent spinning.

My recent dyeing.

I usually take the inspiration photo first, and try to recreate the colors in the fiber. This time, it was reversed. I noticed the colors of this grass on my walk down the driveway to get the mail. It reminded me of the colors I've been dyeing and spinning.





Unless my eye saw it first, and my subconscious made me dye those colors?

Love the way the sun picks out the red blade in the second photo!

That is lovely. Something so simple as grass becoming something of such beauty with change of season.

BTW, apparently the package has arrived from you. I haven't seen it yet as I am out of town until the 12th. Thank you again!
