Here is one the floral artists among us will enjoy

Chuffed to bits so I just want to share this with all you designers and floral art lovers.
Last year I entered some of my floral art photographs with the dream for one of them to be chosen in the next Stichting Kunstboek annual publication of International Floral Art.

A couple of weeks ago I had a peek on their website to see if the book was published yet, and to my surprise I saw one of my photgraphs of succulent creatures scurrying past http://www.stichtingkunstboek.com/default.asp?taal=en

...but seeing is believing...and yesterday the real thing arrived in the post. Yes, my little creatures are in it and if that wasn't enough a 2nd photo has also been published. It is a magnificent book of floral art with some 256 designer from 28 countries. Very excited to be included! Here are some links for International Floral Art 08/09:

Well, judging by the work on your website...........two things come to mind.

First thing - IF I ever get to Auckland, YOu have an eager 25 year veteran designer ready to play student. Secondly - Have you considered seeking membership in AIFD?

mmmmm...new sideline???? You ladies got me thinking!

what did you create them for originally?

Partly this in mind and also just love to play around whenever I can, just love the artsy side of this biz, also getting into photography a bit more.

Whoa.........you are tooooo kind!!...and only if I can be yours too! Would love to try AIFD if I was still in Canada, but it is just not feasible right now, maybe in future.....
