Sense of direction
However, January is the month of resolutions and beginnings. I have spent a lot of time thinking about Christine Kane's suggestion of choosing just one word for the year and explore what it means to you. As I couldn't make my mind, it occured to me that what I need at the moment and have been needing for some time is a sense of direction. So my little potato flower transformed itself in a kind of 8 points compass rose - that was the idea anyway. Maybe it looks more like an Impatiens flower bud.
In the process, I took much much more space than for my usual BJP pieces, which I have found annoyangly small lately. Impatience, need for space, confusion and sense of direction have been my themes for the month.I am also preparing for a retreat beginning of February, and this piece mirrors the one I did for October BJP after my last retreat.

Hi Hélène,
this is very pretty.
I like the simplicity of your piece; it's not overdone.
Yes, each part for itself and all together.
As usual :-) thanks for your nice words.
