This is an image (one of about 50) that my son took. I was going to put up one of the ones he took of me straightening my skirt, fluffing my hair, fixing my bra, making a face or yelling at him to quit laughing and just take the stupid picture ... but decided on this one instead.BIOI am a freelance writer and published author, from Canada. I also putter with web design and fractals. My friends cringe when they open their e-mail and see an attachment with the subject line "What do you think of this one?"
I also do public speaking and have a book published, on bullying, which came out this year. I speak in schools and for different organizations about bullying and writing and it's pretty time consuming but a lot of fun ... the kids are great. I also work for a major financial institution, I guess you could say in my spare time. :)
I have a website for the book, if anyone is interested in seeing what it's about ...

I love the earthy effect of dried clay brush-strokes -death signs, n'est-ce pas?- and the insistent and assertive life force of the greens, the two entwining in a life=death=life harvest of our imagination and perhaps our fears. This poet-artist creates with her senses and I, for one of many, I assume, delight in the intense freshness each time. Thank you PS...chalk another one up for life and living to the fullest.

"A fragrance of creation swirls in the earthen aroma of harvest while the sweet scent of green feeds our senses with awareness of our existence" .... (and a delightful fragrance you bring to the world, like a breath of fresh air).... --------------------------------------------------- "Sometimes, though, nothing is more relaxing than puttering with a spiral." .... Hmmm .... next time instead of looking at 'belly buttons' I'll try puttering with 'spirals' .... wink! .... -------------------------------------------------- BTW .... one gigantic VOTE !!! .... RR69

agree on all above, a real beauty Compliments

Ah me! Late again ... and all the better emotional content comments already made. Still ...I'm so pleased you titled this 'Harvest' ... and not just because the colours are exactly right, but also because the spiral has long been associated with the birth-death-rebirth cycle and has been such a symbol thoughout the world, and indeed throughout history. This reminds me strongly of the harvest 'corn dollies' traditionally made throughout Britain where the body is primarily a tight spiral. Tied up, would you believe, with green ribbon! This is a lovely fractal which raised many associations in my mind ....
ead
I agree about the puttering, and do believe you've taken it to a fine art - this is gorgeous, and an excellent spiral interpretation. Loved Meico's commentary - adds a historic depth to your already almost archetypal image. Thank you, and v.
