Let your hidden possibilities revel:
Upon the flowing waters of Time. ~Ally.

About my work.
Relatively small assemblages are built from flowers, weeds and plants combined with other natural materials that I find in the local bushland or surrounding urban streets.
During the creation of these pieces ~ The process is incredibly magical. Thoughts of anything else are silenced.
I literally fall in love with individual pieces of nature that I'm using, as well as how the different elements greet, merge, compliment and/or contrast with each other.
Hundreds of photographs that can't possibly capture the beauty I see with my eyes are taken at different stages of the arrangement. Then ideas/thoughts/words that come to me, as I look at the resulting images give form to a new expression ~ Short 'poems.'
A fuller description is in my introductory article: The Heart of Immortality
I really enjoy receiving comments and questions about my work ~ From people who may see and add another dimension from their own reality. So if you have another layer to add ~ Please do.
