Works in Progress from Today

This is something new for a long narrow frame.  I'm enjoying the variety of flowers

Collage: Spring to Fall on the Prairie

I enjoyed doing a couple of these collages again.

The first flower in the spring is the prairie crocus.

Prairie roses bloom in June.

The sunflowers are some of the last flowers in the fall. I like the variety of colors!

Orange Cosmos, Sunflowers and Minis

Minimalistic orange cosmos...

Spring to Fall on the Priairie

I try to do a few of these collages every year.

Crocuses are the first to bloom in the spring and roses come in the summer.
(The Golden Alexander I used for accent with the roses are also summer plants.) Sunflowers are some of the last wildflowers of the season.

Here are a couple of close ups

Sunflowers

Sunflowers are a challenge to press, but I tried it again this year.

A couple of collage frames

Photo credits on these collages go to my sister and my niece. There are some deserted little towns close to us that interest photographers! If you click to enlarge the second collage, you can see the old country church outlined by the pump in the bottom photo. Flowers used in the arrangement are: prairie rose, sunflower, chokecherry blossom, Golden Alexanders, and leaves from roses and silver leaf scurf pea.
