Winter Summed Up

Saturday 29th November 2014

winter sky and fennel Nov 2014 Fennel against the winter sky today.  I like leaving the dead flower heads on fennel and sea holly.  Very structural and the birds love it too. Today, I had an exciting planning meeting.  About knitting.  2015 will be good. In the meantime, we have to get through winter.  I hate the cold, and the wet.  But I love the ideal of winter and its festivals and celebrations.  This image is the ideal.  In my planning meeting, it struck me (for the eleventy-fourth time) that as someone who loves sunshine and hot weather, it’s odd that I almost always design in the chilly, cool, wintry colour spectrum and draw most of my inspiration from bleak, spare, cold images.
