  • A cottage in the woods

    Every place holds the story of the lives inside its walls. Every place also has countless number of other forms of lives outside which are mostly ignored.

  • Eternity and transformation

    I placed my mom’s ashes with two hydrangeas. Bringing her inside throught the years as flowers. It helped to understand the process of transformation.

  • Lilac flowers inside a vase

    Lilac trees

    Their scent is the welcoming coming of spring. I brought from Peggie’s farm 3 small bushes. When I left, they were three beautiful trees filled with flowers.

  • In the Field

    My creative process is to paint using different tools and without a structured plan. I have always used my space as an empty canvas and applied to nature the same concept.

  • Born to fly away

    Life's cycle applies to all lives in the universe. Through the years I witnessed many babies leaving the nests, going on their way to discover the universe. It was a privilege.

  • a yellow and blue butterfly

    Of butterflies and bees

    When the garden began both showed up to take real estate inside the community. The news travel fast. It became an issue between the bees and birds for the bird houses. The bees won the fight for the large one and closer to the water.

  • a robbin bird under a bush

    Mr. Robbin

    Mr. Robbin was my first avian friend. He literally spent hours in the garden with me under the bush, making me aware of his presence. I used to question if it was my late husband who turned himself into a bird!

  • two cherry trees in bloom

    Cherry trees

    I planted two cherry trees. One inside my square and another on the field. They came from the Walled Garden and were "Peggie's trees." The thought that an auction would take them away from where they belonged, drove me to it.

  • a beautiful blue frog sleeping inside a yellow lily

    Creatures and surprises

    The Prince was the most fantastic morning surprise! A beautiful color blue, sleeping inside the elegant yellow lilies. He allowed me to register the moment, but I never saw him again. One must cherish the moment, as everything is in transience.

  • a vase filled with flowers

    Inside and out

    Flowers everywhere and all year round. Planting them, watching them grow and bring them inside was one of my greatness pleasures as I was sharing them with my mom. She loved flowers!

  • red rose

    Roses are so hardy!

    They last all through the fall, but are nuanced to be cared for. Bugs loves them. Who wouldn't? But Lady Bugs protect them. I used to get a esquadron in charge of their health.

  • part of a white cottage surrounded by flowers

    Engulfed by flowers

    Looking at this photo it's easy to see how the small cottage was engulfed by flowers everywhere.Bees, hummingbirds and butterflies love the butterfly trees.

The meaning of a decade

It was about understanding through basic activities on how the universe works and my tiny direct participation in the process. After all, the different layers of nature represent a "line of movement" across evolution and, anything that has life is interactive, explorative, adaptable and curious about the world around them.

The lesson was: rethink

After a decade in the woods, I'll never look at the thousands of birds, butterflies, chipmunks, rabbits, bees the same way. Every creature has a "thought" process, beyond science to prove it. They have feelings, empathy, preferences, curiosity and need for interaction as we do. They share friendships and dislikes too.
