Thoughts of Spring.......

While wishing for an early Spring, and giving my hands a bit of a rest from the heavy wire work, I thought I'd use up some of my paper stash for a quick (not very-- as it turned out) project for the show (this weekend).........these collages will be part of a banner hanging along the arbor.

Creating with wire comes easier than trying to make something out of paper stuff......I am never secure with the results.........I salute all you paper artists!
