From Africa to Arizona
The night lighting in my studio made photographing this real tricky tonight BUT … I wanted to take a pic from within my studio and of something relevant in thinking of my artist-friend CARLA WOODY who is celebrating her birthday today.

Carla loves forests, art, layers and texture as much as I do. She though is way more adventurous and brave than I am; so this figure walking through the woods with a wolf for a companion seems appropriate.

Happy, happiest of birthdays dear Carla, from me to you; from my studio in Africa to yours in Arizona. May today be wonderful and then for the year to follow be overflowing with all that you hope for and dream for yourself, and more.

PS. in trying all manner of means and places in my home tonight to capture the true Colour (still failed) and texture tonight; as you will see in two of the pics. the best place in the end was between the whiskey and the onions on a shelf in my kitchen … 🤨😀
