One of the Flock

I love feathers. For years I've picked them up and saved ones I've found laying about. I especially love the ones that are "messed up" because that tells a story of adventure. And, lucky for me, my chickens are super patient and let me endlessly pet them. I think I have a serious case of feather envy.

Now don't get me wrong. I have no urge to fly or have way-too-close encounters with neighborhood cats. But since I won't be sprouting a feather here and there, I took it upon myself to fix that problem.

My first non-floral henna...a tad shaky as the henna had thickened and I had to squeeze the cone a little harder, but it'll do. I'm one of the flock now.

Can you Spot the Freckles?

In my continuing effort to learn how to draw with henna, here's my latest forearm piece. And I do believe that I'm improving...bit by itty bitty bit.

What I'm suddenly aware of, that I hadn't noticed before, is that I have freckles on my arms. A lot of freckles. So many that I ended up looking at the photo I had taken right after I applied the henna to see if it was just me sloppily splattering henna around.

But nope, I wasn't sloppy, just freckly.


Can you spot the freckles?

And, just a reminder, my forearm is decidedly not for sale, I find I need it,
but if you'd like to check out some of my purchasable art...
