From the back of my eyelids...
Do you ever get images that "pop" behind your eyelids at night when you lie down to sleep? I do.
Clearly, this is the Empress of the Sea finally shoving the evil Ruby Skeleton off his pedestal in his Ruby Chateau. Clearly. You couldn't tell?

The era in which you're born must have a pretty bold effect on forming your vision, rather how those experimental cats that were only exposed to vertical or horizontal lines can only see vertically or horizontally (don't ask me to explain it further. I didn't understand then and I don't get it now.).
For better or worse my formative years were in the 1980s, so you know what images were burned on my retina. Big hair still seems okay, as does satin and chintz, and I have a deep and abiding sympathy for "grandma colors" on nails and lips. Frankly, "blush" and "bashful" are okay to me.
So this is a vision that I would have adored in 1988. Aw, hell - I adore it now.

Hypothetical Backyard
This was not a commission from my sister.
It was not asked for.
But I am giving my opinion anyway!
She has a lovely, open backyard and her lawn is very well maintained due to the overzealous attention of the neighborhood lawn crew.
So it's maybe too open, in fact.
To that end, I have added the missing wall of fence.
Nothing's to scale, obviously. And, as I wrote in an earlier post, I don't believe that this garden could exist with all these various plants and things blooming. They wouldn't be blooming at the same time.
But it answers some of her hopes and wishes for her backyard as expressed over the years.
