What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.
Hi Yam - well I sincerely hope so ... so much to come right. The Blue Poppy - I've been wanting to write about an exhibition I saw about ten years ago ... on the blue poppy of the Arctic ... now seems a good time. Enjoy the weekend - Hilary
Hari OM This is a Himalayan Poppy... Arctic (aka Iceland) poppies are in the yellow/orange spectrum, not blue. The colour itself might be described artistically as 'Arctic Blue' but there is no connection beyond that! Yxx
What a fitting quote. I totally feel it relates to my life.
