It seems that when my creative genes retreat, I turn to collage.
This is the result of one of those times. I called it "Gathering my Thoughts" because it looks to me like what I think is going on inside my head. One random thought sort of connects with another random thought.
This week in SW Florida we were released from quarantine however I am VERY uncomfortable with being out and about. I started repotting my orchids and that has kept me very busy and isolated and I think I will stay that way for the next few months. We are so fortunate to be older and not really interested and a social life. I feel very sorry for young people missing graduations, weddings and other milestones in their lives. They will create the 'new normal'.
A reason to celebrate for me. This grammatophyllum is 10 years old and has been cared for by me for 10 years with no blooms. This year we have BLOOMS
Happy, healthy PPF

I love the thought of connecting thoughts! Very clever rendering of a....thought! Nice to be rewarded by a plant for good care. Enjoy!
Love the collage piece, beautiful colours. Wow,stunning orchid.
That's a fabulous collage, your thoughts seem to be zooming about in space and time. Congrats on your beautiful I-can't-spell-it-or-pronounce-it plant, well done. I am not a good gardener, but I try! Have a wonderful weekend, hugs, Valerie
Gongrats for your old plant is blooming👍 I am quit sure that plants like company 😊
You made a wonderful collage with your wise thoughts. I agree that we elder people tolerate better this closed situation.
Wishing you all possible good things🌷 Happy PPF ❤️
Lovely piece, do stay safe!
My job is of a personal care giver and I to get nervous when I go out. Most people here don't do mask.

Love the collage-and I agree with you-I don't feel comfortable going out much either. So happy for you that your plant bloomed!
I loved your thought filled comment on my collage. I like yours too, it has repetition of color, and shape, movement. Well done.
we need to be very suspicious of releasing quarantine as nothing has been really done to make life safer, if people won't stay back or wear masks which is our only way to limit the spread now. One can't live on denial of danger!
I am also scattered with thoughts at the moment, so I hope I remember to come back and visit you to see how things are going!

Hooray for your blooms!! The reward for all your love and care! I feel like my thoughts are scattered these days, too. Nothing is as it should be, so I just keep painting, hoping for normal to return! Have a great week!
Wow! I can see your thoughts connecting. Very cleaver piece of art. I would love to see your face in that photo. Wish we had some of your sunshine here.
love your Gathering.... I know what you mean. Your piece could do well for an article on my brain. :)
