Visitors to the Garden - Photography by Sarah Myers
 |
| Bees on Silver and Gold, Sarah Myers Digital Photography |
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.

The Colours of White - Photography by Sarah Myers
 |
| 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 - Sculpture by Sarah Myers
 |
| 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 with Flowers - Sculpture by Sarah Myers
 |
| 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.

Roses and Rainstorm - Photography by Sarah Myers
 |
| Roses After Rainstorm, Sarah Myers Photography |
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...
