It all started in a garden
Then a lady came along and picked a dazzling fireworks Dahlia
She scanned it and photographed it multiple times. She filtered and posted and delighted the world
She dried it for weeks until it became kind of sad looking but she saw great potential
She unwrapped a canvas covered in burlap. She applied layers of aerosol adhesive and began plucking the sad looking petals and placing them in a design onto the canvas until a pattern developed. She said it was her favorite so far – but she says that every time. She said it looks like a dream catcher. He said it looks like fireworks. And the other he said it looks like an explosion.
She will let it sit and ponder what it will become — sleep on it dreaming of delightful ideas and share them with the world.
