Fall 08-008 Imaginings from what is perceived: Even the parasitic vines that climb and intertwine with the mighty maples decide to join in the game for attention from the viewer.

Qcpg 13-019 Imaginings from what is perceived: I can only identify the echinacea here, but there are two other blue-purple flowers. The designers planned the garden with many similar combinations and occasionally we could see a contrasting white to yellow bloom, always on a bed of the lushest greens. It was a beautiful garden and … Continue reading 500 Works of Art on the Road to Your Creativity #350 – Qcpg 13-019
