Garden Botanical

With much appreciation for enjoying these collages with me I love making them as well! In this image I used the back of a Cabinet Card & old letter from my stash, and wanted to add some garden bugs as long-ago painters did. When it came time to find the anole from my collection (a stay in Kauai years ago) I kept coming up empty handed. Though it was already 1 AM, I had to call on Ken to help me... He found it, and I could retire, satisfied it was what I was striving for...

Can't wait to start another...and hope the next one goes a little faster!

It really came out well. I hope you agree it was worth the effort.

I love this. I have to admit, I was not familiar with term 'anole' and It took me a while to find all three critters.

[Pyrrhula]

Great capture of this pretty flower. Ours seem to get blooming again after a few years of not doing so. Fav.
