Orphan in the Deep Dark Forest

Uploaded: April 20, 2007

Description

I am very sorry, I have extremely limited internet access can't post or comment, not sure when I'll be able to. So sorry.

I just spent two weeks cleaning my Mom's house and working on her estate and have to go back Monday.

(I'm an orphan now, at 60.)

I'm so sorry for your loss Mary.
This is a spectacular image though with so much meaning. #4190326

Thanks so much, Judy! I am feeling kind of overwhelmed, frazzled and worn out and not done yet! THANKS Mary :-D #4190329

Thanks so much, Mary. We had a wonderful Memorial Service on April 7 (and another on the 12th) and got a lot done, but so much more to do. So busy there is little time to grieve. I apprecaite your kind words. Mary :-D #4190355

Oh Mary this is wonderful. I absolutely love it. Although I adore simplistic pictures I also enjoy the opposite and there is so much to search for in this deep picture. I would love to see a huge copy of it at some time. Is this to go in a storybook? I would love to see it in a book filled with all similar pictures. Maybe some that are not so deep and dark also. #4190358

Thanks, Kate!! I really apprecaite your kind words! WOW! I hadn't considered it for a book, I actually made it to go with a poem I'd written. But I would love to do a series and maybe a storybook if I ever have time to play again! Thanks for the idea! (You can see a bigger version or an earlier draft here.)
I might have to do it over more carefully, though, for use in a book. #4190387

Mary, at the moment the link does not work! Maybe I tried it too soon. #4190445

Beautiful, Mary. I understand how you feel about losing someone close to you. The days seem like a blur but you do get through them. Thinking of you and just know you are in my prayers. I'll have to check out your poems. #4201869
