As difficult as it may be, there are times to put the paint brush down. Some things just can’t wait.

You have a purely (and uniquely) Tali way of seeing colours and i especially liked your comment in the fireweed photo about nature being the master colourist. So…. down with Blue and Green should Never be Seen! And I loved the stepping stones one too.
Thank you, flattering words coming form someone I so admire.
