I find flowers the same way I find butterflies and surround my "flutterbys" with my magical fantasy garden.
I spend as much time as I like pausing and stepping back from the piece.
If I feel like a word belongs somewhere in the image I try to place it quietly in my creation. I

Carolynne Gamble and I have been friends for over 40 years. We met in Oakland and we immediately connected as artists and spiritual souls. She is a gift in my life and edits all these blasts!
We are working on my new book Soulful Voices and she edited all my 6 books over the past 20 years. She sent this image and I love it!
