Please visit me in my garden, among the flowers and weeds, as I carve out a little patch of heaven in this rainy Pacific Northwest. I hope to share with you some of the joys, the triumphs, the techniques I learn along the way, and maybe some favourite garden recipes and art projects, too.

3D Dinosaur Scene
I've been working long hours lately, with not even a chance of "spare" time to play with the DAZ Studio software. But when a free 3D Protoceratops arrived in my Inbox tonight, just before a long weekend, it was an offer I couldn't refuse.
Here is a little scene I put together, called "Keep Up Junior" (click photo for a larger image):

Fairy House - Part 3
I managed to find the time to put a roof on the fairy house, but then haven't squeezed any time these past couple of weeks to post photos of it, so even though it's midnight, I'm finally going to make time to post.
The grass roof is the faded straw from my blue oat grass, which I quite regularly pull handfuls from, to keep them looking fresh and greenish-blue. The decorative puff-balls are stems I dried from my bunny tail grass (Lagurus ovatus) at the end of last summer. I can't wait until I get the fairy house out into the garden. I'll be sure to post photos then, but I have a feeling it may be a few more weeks before I do that.
