These Palm fronds are delightful to paint and also Jazz up my garden.
I added a little String art and beads to the ends. These pods are really strong and dense wood. So I drilled holes and put in a wire hanger to support it when I hang it in the garden.
The seed pods are smaller but still equally delightful to paint, they make great shakers to bring to the fiesta!
Lovely artwork. It blends into the natural landscape very nicely. ☆☆☆☆☆😎
thanks Amigo! have a great day!!
Thanks @Michael....It does look nice in the foliage....I love putting my art in the garden...the plants love It! :)
Gorgeous I love the seed pod!
thanks you for your kind comments!
I like that string addition at the end! Do most of the palm fronds work for you? Or do you pass by a lot of fronds, seeking just the perfect one?
Happy New Year! And I hope 2017 is a great year for you - with lots of natural material for your art! :D
haha we do have many in our yard, I do pass some up because they actually produce more than I can paint as well as some warp and bend before I can get to them. Happy New years to you as well my friend! I know it will be an abundant year! For us all!
Thanks!
