Mary Quite Contrary
Mary Quite Contrary....a view of my heaven, my inspiration for current projects and future installations. Recycled arts, painting, sustainable architecture, fiber, digital and contemporary art along with classic painting and ancient artifacts. Anthropological and various religions views and spiritually uplifting quotes. Vintage, traditional folk arts and did i mention traveling caravans and tree houses?
The Poppy from Besler’s Hortus Eystettensis, the world’s most beautiful botanical book, first published in 1613. Over a thousand images were represented, most in true-life size.
