Finished the ancient greek acanthus fragment piece. Not how I planned, might have more attempts; but still satisfied.

#acanthus Family

Acanthacear

This family has a counaipolitan distribution, with greatest diversity in the impies of loslornalaysia, Africa, Brazil, and Central America. It derives its marine from the Greek word alatha, meaning spity or thomy. Several members are cultivated for ornurnentals, including blackeyes (Thunbergia) and Aphelandra

Like the headpiece on the same page, the tailpiece ornament shown here is uncredited.

The nine-petaled crown of the Lady of the Stylized Acanthus Leaves?

But it is amazing how much work went into such small details.

Well, me and the family moved back to MN. A lot going on. Finished a summer job at the Science Museum of MN, now working on our house. Took another class to continue honing my skills - butternut clock on the right. Just playing with the basswood on the left.

Beautiful bag art by @Himmapaan perfect for hauling chisels & gouges.

The surprise was #Acanthus ! I forgot I took a few seeds to see if I could maintain them in a vase.

Beware if you plant them on the ground, it will be difficult to take them out, any bit of root you leave will germinate again.

I do love the #WilliamMorris wallpaper:

From tutorial again. Extremely rough now that I look at it. I've got such a long way to go.
