Hey Selby,
It's been a long time since I caught up with your wonderful puddles. Always a great joy. There are so many new posts and members that if you don't check the Forums often things get pushed down the page. I greatly admire your variety. Dancers, pigeons, bonsai, all done with such great love and panache.
You made my morning, I can start my work day with a smile. Thanks.
XOXO,
sam...

That middle one is brilliant - using the curve of the bottom of your skirt as if in Da Vinci mode. . . not quite as stiff as his pic of the human body in a circle. Very much the anatomy of a free spirit.
The characters are fun. When did you do these?
thanks D Akey these were for a uni assignment about a year ago...actually no it must be closer to two -its was about time and you had to show a weekend in your life so i did a series of images and bound them in a little fold out book
