Bees on Silver and Gold, Sarah Myers

   Diligent bees with gold bands and filmy wings, humming in and out of the flowers - the ferocious-looking but most welcome guardian of the garden, a giant bronze dragonfly - the tiny silver glint of a blue-gray butterfly, with a curled tongue still tasting sweetness - all these small visitors have been spotted among the flowers, taking as their own world the beauty and brightness of the garden. I captured these images in my sister's garden in the desert, whose progress you can read about here; the pictures are from late summer, early autumn days when the air was full of busy creatures, full of this smaller world which we gladly welcome as our own.

Study of Hands Drawing Leaves, Sarah Myers
Charcoal and white conte define these hands against the grey paper. Is the right hand sketching a stem and leaves held by the left?

Jasmine White
Sarah Myers, Photography
What are the colours of white? The pure scent of the jasmine blossom, the billowing shoulders of an unstained cloud; the pearl-cold, pearl-small dot of the moon among the palm-fronds; the delicious ivory of a new rose; that burst of exultant happiness, the Star of Bethlehem flower; the frail lace of an apricot bloom which is the delight of an eager bee. Here are many tints of white, the colour without shadow.

Head of a Child, Sarah Myers
This sculpture of a young child looking expectantly upward is one of my most recent works, a small bust in terracotta created for my mother. He is about 18 cm (7 inches) high and modelled in a rich, warm earthenware, a clay whose composition was developed by my sister Amy Myers. I am pleased with the baby's vitality and by the bright, childlike spontaneity in his expression.

Dancer for flowers, Sarah Myers
My new sculpture holds overflowing flowers in her hands and on her head. Made in stoneware for just these kinds of bouquets, she glances up at the blooms above her with a happy expression and sways lightly as if beginning to dance with the flowers.
Arrangement and photography by the artist.

A moment after the last glittering rain has fallen, rose blooms sway against the sky, drinking the cool air and the bright water. It is a glimpse of a gentle magnificence, refreshing the mind...
