I joined a group called Simple Still Life. It’s an online group set up to sort of give a little artistic challenge. Get the juices going and all that. Each month there is a new challenge. This month we were supposed to take a picture of one item with it’s shadow, and then take that picture and use it as inspiration for whatever art form we choose, to create a sort of still life.
So I had wandered around the yard looking for something, I thought my own shadow was pretty interesting!
But I settled on the thing in the yard that is supposed to cast a shadow. Our sun dial.
I particularly like the column that it stands on. It was inherited with the house as the base of a birdbath. The bowl of the bird bath broke and so it then became the base of the sun dial.
So that will be my focus. I will be doing my piece in knitting. So hang out and see how it progresses.
