@ the 50th Allied Arts Celebration October 2012

 
When I was making this window my sweet Mother-in-law Frieda told me a story of her Mother Myrtle who would sit in their garden for hours enjoying the day while the hummingbirds would nest in the curls of her snowy white hair. My window does not look like Myrtle but, does tell the wonderful story. ♥ This window and 49 other pieces of art are on display through October 2012 for the 50th Allied Arts celebration
