you get a better idea of what it really looks like
as you can see
the nest of this bower bird
is impressively cluttered
the iPhone takes quite good snaps
but it's more fun with
not quite as good as a Box Brownie
but rather easier
to fit into a pocket
really wonderful workspace! i may take the liberty of showing this to my very virgo daughter who rejoices everytime i recycle or reorganize. tell me, if you will, what's in the blue vessel, overlooked by an angel?
ReplyDeletethat's a rather sulky brew of [natural] indigo which i am attempting to coax into life by natural means
ReplyDeleteash water, molasses, incantations
it's taking its time
and is a temperamental beast
but
offers me the challenge of exploring new ground
in search of the slow hand blues
it's an experiment
that
if it works
i'd like to apply to our indigenous blue
'indigofera australis'
No wonder you can make/create/coax all those extraordinary marks onto cloth...you have a REAL workspace.
ReplyDeletei, too, have incantations. not repeatable!!!
ReplyDeletewill you let the vat know that magic from far away is encouraging it?
when i made paper from birds' nests i wasn't sure it would happen especially after my wasp nest paper disaster. but it worked.
So this is the place where all the magic happens. Can't help myself but i still like the atmosphere.

I love the walls....I see how you can cook up luscious colors in this space.
ReplyDeletesuch a collection of pots et al under that BIG AUSTRALIAN SKY....sigh!
ReplyDeleteI love this place! Something about it just says "creative". I only feel creative if all my "stuff" is around me. You too? I wouldn't mind spending a few days/weeks/months in an environment like this. Cozy!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure that there is a tale to be told of how the angel came to be presiding over your wonderful workspace - and I'm afraid I'm too curious to be able to resist asking the question....
ReplyDeletehave you seen me..the little red robin high in the tree?

So very many places to stop and mull and stir, a true alchemist's play ground! -Jayne
ReplyDeleteah yes, the angel
ReplyDeletedecided to come on my journey
some 19 years ago
since then her wings have been knocked off
by boys playing football in the house
clumsily repaired by me
she holds a candle
and thus lights early winter mornings
and late summer evenings
good quiet company
always supportive
never too critical
just there when needed
just for fun--the virgo said, "yes you showed me on the video, is that the outside?" when pressed about the creative accouterments, she said, "drives me crazy!"
ReplyDeleteMy camera is more like a brownie box camera, must get something more compact at some stage. Nice work space Indi.
