Rose Hips

Over the past two months I've watched the fruits of this rose turn from vibrant green to wonderful  shades of orange.  Soon they will become deep red.

Close up it resembles a cactus fruit.

Thank you for visiting.

Sea Goddess

Assemblage made in the the 1990s titled  "Sea Goddess Returns from the Deep" .

The starting point was a barnacle encrusted doll's head found on a beach,
a weathered lamb's scull and brilliantly coloured dock leaves.

This is about transformation and the cycles of nature.

I'm always surprised at how quickly dock leaves begin to change colour.

This year most appear to be going straight from green to brown, possibly because of the dry summer.

The Rune Vase

The rune vase is by Clive Soord.

Runes are letters from an ancient Northern European alphabet.
For centuries they have been used for divination purposes.

In the burner I'm using Planetary Saturn Incense - intended to promote clear thinking.

The pendulum is labradorite and opal.

I use crystals intuitively - my intention here is for cleansing and clarity.
