IT'S SPRING! HAVE YOU BEEN BUSY?...

 This is how

 paint went on

 barrel staves.

 They lend 

themselves 

to such

earthy

delight!

 Using:

Plaster

Paint,

paper and words...

 Leaving spots 

in their natural state 

(yet sealed for preservation)

 A few deep and meaningful words,

thoughts,

like;

'JUST BE'

 Sparse amount of

personal altered photos

Ready to hang, wires on the backs (which are painted solid black)

Some of their words:

'inside the heartbeat of creation'

'simple things you already know'

'daydreaming'

and

'nowhere else matters'
