The relationship of the leaves to the wood grain of our dining table where I photographed these wonderfully delicate beings didn't escape my notice, either. I have a number of wood veneers (which B also gave me) in my work-space which I have been planning to use in my work for some time, but haven't yet decided how to go about it. Perhaps I will find some direction now.
Previous works on wood veneers can be seen in this journal here and here.
