Pale and Interesting Friday



So these are the pieces that initially inspired my "Pale and Interesting" series.  Thanks to Camilla for permission to post hers and Per Agelii's.  They are all different but the same in spirit.  I got a little shiver from each because of their simplicity. The immediacy that they embody in their mode of construction, which gives the forthrightness that I mentioned in previous Pale and Interesting post.  Their restraint.  Their delicacy.  They seem to describe a journey of exploration.  And all are ultimately, considerably sophisticated.

  4. glad you all are liking this one. i think that inevitably it will be revisited. there is something so compelling in "pale". i guess it just makes you slow down and look a little harder. or it's easier to look longer. hmmm, will have to think about that. cheers! great weekend to all!
