It has taken me until this morning to get back to the library to photograph the finished installation - the week is a blur. My priority list was top-heavy! I have declared today an official 'day off', and a time to reflect and restore my energy for what is coming roaring down the river next.
Enjoy with me these photos of 'Tidal River'.

OK, I am off to the studio to putter around on this rainy Saturday afternoon. Flossy and I have a date for tea out at my friend Polly's at 2pm, and then we'll go home to the Sailor and his fire.
Lady, I can tell you : a GRAND FINALE it is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful community space! And the art work is spectacular! It looks so beautiful in this space, and I can picture it moving with the air flow. I actually think it is perfect too as this weeks theme of garland.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful, sus, you must be soooo proud! I can only imagine what those panels must look like gently moving with the air currents .... ooooh la la. Wondering what the reflective disks are made from? or perhaps they are painted? They add such a wonderful dimension to the piece ....
ReplyDeleteYour town sure has good taste when it comes to architecture AND art ;>]]
