A large black log at the edge of a muddy pond, individual flower petals have fallen on to the log and are barely clinging to it, no leaves, no trees, no flowers, just delicate and beautiful individual petals, diffuse watercolor effect, Thomas Wells Schaller, Munch, Klee, Van Gogh.
A dark log rests in calm water, adorned with scattered red petals that have been carried by the wind from fading flowers.
I couldn't quite capture the essence of the Ezra Pound Poem, the fragility of individuals when detached from their centers, their sustenance, their support.
"The apparition of these faces in the crowd;
Petals on a wet, black bough."
The bough was too flimsy and had a lot of detracting branches so I used a log. It took a lot of tries to get petals instead of leaves and flowers; I'd be interested to see other people's results if anyone tries it.
