The beauty of trees

I've had this artist bookmarked for a long time and finally got around to collecting my favorites and posting them for you. I grew up on a large farm which was home to many large old trees. These trees were people to my sisters and I. They had personalities and feelings and I still think about them from time to time - and I hope they're well and around for a very long time. So, of course I was instantly intrigued by Anders Knutsson's prints and paintings of large, old trees. His works are either archival digital prints on paper, pencil on paper, or acrylic on linen










The above is acrylic on linen

Oh how I'd love a trio of his trees!

The new silk flowers - your opinions wanted!

Yea or Nay on silk flowers used to be obvious - you could usually spot them a mile away. These days however, the quality is getting higher, the arrangements more contemporary and elegant, and it's not always so easy to tell. Perhaps there is nothing like the real thing - but I have a hard time getting fresh flowers to last more than a few days and stopping my roommate's cats from eating them.

If you do go the artificial route, I suggest purchasing a few and swapping them out from time to time - nothing worse than dusty fake flowers, and it makes it seem like you're spending the money for fresh bouquets.

One definite reason to "yea" these bouquets is that they're all under $50 - easily what you'd spend on 4 weeks worth of these fresh. In fact, they start at $29.95. Check them out at HSN.
