Colonies on Cloth and Tree Trunks


A week of fire and smoke 
Spring clean-up
but the eyes have it I think!


Textures growing around the wee bird


Stitches going down as randomly as possible.


Heavily ridged Ash 
great surface for random fungi colonization


though some prefer to march hither and thither
across Spruce bark


and this I presume could be dried sap providing protection
where a branch used to be.

  3. "as randomly as possible" is right - it can be difficult to create something genuinely random - but I think you've done really well with it!
