I remember someone saying it looked like a snake and it does. Maybe it's a branch caught in the bamboo. I showed Mark and asked him what he thought of the driftwood and the first thing he said was entangled.

I've thought about gathering driftwood for some future piece but it will need to wait until early in the fall when I go to my sister's. They have a cabin on a lake with an endless supply of beaver cleaned pine. Yummm! I love the button with the spider and of course the peering eyes.Anne Marie - Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841030304464450073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24728463.post-45580754011057410762009-07-31T04:09:30.449-07:002009-07-31T04:09:30.449-07:00oh I do like this page! the eyes are especially &q...oh I do like this page! the eyes are especially "eye-catching"! very cool.pam Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305349617038992064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24728463.post-60942840994866980662009-07-30T13:02:56.448-07:002009-07-30T13:02:56.448-07:00Thanks for all the great comments...you are really...Thanks for all the great comments...you are really making me think now!<br /><br />I started with the spider/fly button because this month we have a lot of webs in the garden, both among the flowers and the raspberries....but in looking at it I realize that in some ways I feel like the fly, caught in a web, not knowing just when the spider will come and get me, but knowing it might be soon...on beadbabe49https://www.blogger.com/profile/08270938730730250964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24728463.post-9624807650075607492009-07-30T12:44:49.628-07:002009-07-30T12:44:49.628-07:00I forgot to ask about the driftwood...

What could the spider web signify and what about the fly that is caught in the web, yet not yet bound by the spider? Is the orb a sun or a moon? Such a complex and compelling piece, Bobbi! I really love it!<br /><br />How are you feeling, Bobbi???<br /><br />Love and hugs, RobinRobinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06700778413231259614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24728463.post-18591861010934756732009-07-30T10:42:42.544-07:002009-07-30T10:42:42.544-07:00Funny but I find it totally celestial.

Im taking Mindfulness Training so Im working on this. I have learned from this course that we need to just honor what we are feeling and not judge. Just watch it, name it and then we dodnt have to feel less then.
