New Work Colleagues
Above we have Ya Kwanza, our Silverback lowland gorilla & a photo of one of his many wives, then last but not least one of the Meerkats.....I love these creatures too & could just sit there for hours watching them get up to all their antics......... this one was on lookout duty.

By the Sea
Flower Art on a Grand Scale!
Gargoyle detail, Notre Dame de Paris float & a Tiger created with dyed harestail grasses, many hours go into these creations! Hope you enjoyed a little peek into Jersey's Battle of Flowers.
Visual Anthologies
If you've never visited Judy Wilkenfeld's blog...well now's the time as you're in for a real treat, not only is the art out of this world but the accompanying process of creating these pieces is truely thought provoking and at times heart wrenching.......as in her latest project "Numbers",
do scroll down & follow the whole story from the beginning.
Another of Judy's wonders is "Of Elephants & Dreams" which is a must see & read (scroll down to the beginning of May to follow the story in sequence). Here again, this amazing artist takes you through her thought process in creating this astounding book.
So put aside a fair bit of time & an ample supply of coffee, you'll need it & believe me it's well worth it!
