Self Portrait~Wednesdays with Misty / Spring Oak Leaves

I thought this looked like an old hawaiian postcard with Old Auntie Mabel gracing the front. Nope, it's me in Panama with a wet scarf falling off my short hair...it's hot there, baby!
This is what we've been doing, my husband, Richard and I. He asked me to draw some oak leaves, then suprised me with these rods and leaves. We have some more work to do on the mechanics, but i love them (and him) and just wanted to share. I'm going to dye the cheese cloth soon!
