My Gnome Little World

Making nature into what it isn’t.

A Starfish Sea Urchin.

Dead Coral Growing.

Shells in the Sky.

Sea Glass on Solid Ground.

Sponge Flooring.

Plated Turtle Food.

Nature doesn’t need me. I pluck it from its home and it bring it to mine.  I need nature. 

As I am begging for inspiration, pleading for motivation, I cage nature.

There is sits.  Mocking me.

My mind rolls around these visions in my head as the sea rolls around glass, making it solid so you can’t see through it, you just see it.

I stole from nature for my own pleasure.  To turn nature’s art into my own.

Who was I fooling?

Nobody can do better than this?

But Yet I Try.

My Vintage Watercolor Pencil Version of the photo of nature above.

I won’t try to insult it by calling it anything other than “Sand Sea Sky”.

Why I love Photography, I pluck it from where it is supposed to be yet keep it there.

Thank you for allowing me this musings.  I hope you enjoy and will visit again.
