I've been dyeing with procion mx these last two winter weeks. The colour hit has cheered me up v much. 
I needed green. 
And red. 
Today in the studio I returned to the figures - forms - whatever they are, that I have made from wrapped birch branches and fabric and dressed them for a wedding.
I'm not sure. I'm following my heart here. 
I want to marry beauty with what a lot of people may think is shocking or disturbing imagery. If we can allow ourselves not to turn away, we will come to meet this unknown.
I mean it in a way of marvel, of wonder.
If you can allow yourself wonder, you can allow yourself to see.

hello. I am checking out all your blogs-- they are all wonderful - don't know how you keep up because I have a hard time just with my one blog. You have some beautiful hand dyed colors here.
I love following your thought processes Judy.
Beautiful colours for a grey day here in England. Thank you!
Beautiful, rich red... and, two of my favorite things: a spiral and a bird silhouette. I like the quote at the end, something strong in that.
