a story in progress

If you follow me on facebook you might have already seen these photos.  They're of a new terrarium scene I've been working on.

I was remarking that my favorite part was the playing.  When I get the basic scene done I can start adding details.  They aren't planned beforehand, they kind of present themselves as I look at the scene.

I'll add a leaf or two here, a pebble or two there...

...maybe a couple of flowers and a caterpillar, and before long there's a whole story in front of me.

This piece is almost done and I can't wait to share it with you (with better pictures, I promise) in its final state.

More to come soon...
