METAMORPHOSIS MONDAY

Metamorphosis Monday has come around again and I almost missed it. Susan @ Between Naps on the Porch is hosting and you don't want to miss it that is for sure. This is one of the most successful memes going and you are sure to amazed by the creative talents shown by the bloggers. Please leave a comment here and then take a look at the others on the list over there.

What do most artistic people have in common? They have the ability to see what can be. They can chip away at a piece of wood or stone and see the hidden statue inside of it.

They can take the colours of the rainbow and blend them together to create a painting of sunsets or faces that rival a photograph.

They can take strands of wool and weave them into a piece of clothing or a wall hanging with patterns of unbelievable complexity.

Or they can take the left over, waste or junk from a pile of metal and create the fellows below. These are on the fence at our cabin. They are just so cute. Unfortunately every once in a while we find one of them mounting the other because men never grow up and all they think of is sex.
Now you know just one more reason why I rarely go up to the cabin and when I do it is with a group of women. At least we know how to behave. Snort.

  1. I have letters that stand up individually to say "bloom"..My adult sons rearranged them. The M got turned upside down,and an O went missing. I never noticed it until friends over lunch pointed it out. Very artistic.

  2. Are they moose? I don't know the plural for moose, is it mooses? Or mice harhar? They're fabulous, I love them. You're very lucky to have a wilderness retreat though it sounds like you don't go often. What a pity.

  6. Lori,

    I'm not quick on the take...I can be very blonde that way. Now I am cracking up. Our carpenter loves to carve and shape rocks and stones. On the stone wall at our lake we have a perfect rendition of a womans's bum. And it's er...anatomically correct. Luckily, it's easy to miss and we certainly don't point it out! LOL!!

    Love this post! And I think going to the cabin is probably a lot more fun with just the girls!

    xoxo

  10. Cute! My brother used to take our neighbor's large reindeer Christmas decorations and have them mounting each other every year. It was too funny because we lived by a busy road and they had spot lights on them.

    Ha ha ha. Good times. ;)
