Thank you so much for your kind words of praise. I do enjoy creating figurals and I'm getting quite a collection. Thanks also for this forum where I can show my work, and the links to the info were also inspiring.

there is a woman on this site who writes "shape poetry" - occasionally she asks me to check them out- never knew they had a name-
i do like this attempt at the form and the shape is just fun.
