I'll be leaving Facebook and IG and YouTube very soon.

I appreciate all the kind support I've been given by many people here and it would be wonderful to stay connected where possible.

Dear friends.

I am no longer going to share my work or interests on Facebook.

For some time now I've been sharing my new work and interests in creativity, natural healing and planetary awareness at MINDS.

I also share my own artwork at IG and Makers Place and more recently Kolect.

I've had a break from writing articles at Steemit over the past 12 months but will be sharing my writings/artwork again in 2021 at HIVE.

I will be exhibiting photographs of my Ephemeral Artwork in a group show with 4 other photographers in early 2022. This work has already been created and has been shared on my page: https://www.facebook.com/Allyinspirit/

I intend to continue working on my present series of collage and mixed media: Stories of Place: And exhibit this body of work in 2022 as well, as a solo exhibition.

You can see some of the work in this series already at my IG for mixed media: https://www.instagram.com/allyinspirit.mixedmedia/

Often in Sydney we can have all the seasons in one day. It was such a day yesterday when I captured this image of a red rose on my morning walk.

When the magic is fading.

When it feels.
As if: The magic is fading.
As if: The candle is a flickering.
As if: The rose has lost her fragrance.
Walk calmly through this passage. Your heart.
Is being stripped away of all falsehood and neediness.
As the petals wilt and fall. New seeds born. Your heart will rejoice. ~Ally.

Temperance: Stilling the Ruffles.
