I see a simple branch and fall in love with the texture!!
It has a very rugged appearance, gnarled and nubby....
much like ourselves....
but add the Fruit of the Spirit
and it becomes a work of art!!
I love taking something simple and transforming it into something special ~

Dawn, your "Fruit of the Spirit" collage is just perfection! It is such a beautiful work of art, as all your creations are...you are so prolific in your ideas! I can see it encased in a protective shadowbox hanging in an art gallery in NYC!
Hi Dawn,
what a wonderful piece of art. And what a great idea. Always love to come and stop over at your flog with my latte.
Hugs Myriam
Oh Miz Dawn,

I always enjoy your blog and I'm so happy you stopped by mine - just lovely....I adore eggs, birds and nests! There's even a plant with the name of the species called "bluebird" Jennifer
This is so beautiful, Dawn! You've taken a bare, cold branch and made it into something that says "warmth and hope" just by tucking inspiration words on tags onto it!

What a glorious creation! I love the marriage of mixed meida and especially the message. The simplicity of your work is always so textural and visually stunning. Love it!
Dawn ~ That is so very pretty ! I just love every thing you create ~

DAWN, WHAT A CLEVER WAY TO USE SOMETHING THAT YOU LOVE FROM THE OUTDOORS! IT'S BEAUTIFUL! I FEEL THE SAME, THE TEXTURES OF BRANCHES CAN STOP YOU IN YOUR TRACKS, THEY ARE SO WONDERFUL! NATURE ALWAYS MOVES ME TO PRAISE GOD.
THANKS FOR STOPPING BY MY BLOG AND LEAVING A COMMENT. I ENJOYED HEARING FROM YOU.
HUGS, JUDY
Dawn, I love how you bring nature into your artwork. It has such a calming effect. hugs to you,Kim
Dawn- Not that matters but just in case someone is interested that limb is from the Sweet Gum tree and when it looks like that they call it "winged". Isn't it ironic that you can make something so beautiful from a tree that has those nasty sticker ball? Just goes to show there is a little good in everything. Take Care-- Joy
This is lovely Dawn!
Dawn, - Your collage is just amazing and so creative. A piece of spirit that everyone can relate to. You are so very talented and insightful----. I adore this blog.

Hi Dawn.
Simply beautiful. I once created a piece for my sister on canvas and I actually created a frame using some scrap pieces of cedar my neighbor cut and left by the curb.

Dawn,
It takes me breath away! Your gift is taking little bits of nature, things most people step on walking around everyday, & elevating it to a thing of beauty. Lisa
It is GORGEOUS! I love it! (And it is also shamefully a relief to know I'm not the only Catholic girl spelling corrector" out there! (Just for the record though, I hadn't noticed)!
Big Hugs,

Lots of love and hugs, Dorthe

Love this to bits. Aren't branches great? You did a fabulous job pulling it all together. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Dawn, Thanks for paying me a visit and leaving your sweet comment! I enjoyed visiting Tanger and LOVED Kirklands! What a great store slam full of goodies. I'll be going back soon. Have a blessed day and love your beautiful creation.
Stunning...
I am so absolutely in love with this piece.
What an amazing piece of art Dawn. I love this so much. It's beautiful. You always wow me!
I think you must see everything as art.

Dawn, how beautiful. As I have often said you posses a fine artistic hand that creates elegant simplicity. Hugs...Sandy D.

Oh so serene and pretty...no wonder it's sold! Would make a wonderful family tree too.
Wow! That is just awesome! Twyla
What a great idea, and so very unique and beautiful!
I love rugged branches! I love your art piece too! I have a huge branch of curly willow in my guest room. I bought it for a Christmas project, but never got around to it. I'm thinking up some other ideas now! Thanks for sharing this pretty piece!
Love,
Sheila
