Making images of special places is very satisfying, I do enjoy the challenge of changing, colours, scale and technique to suit the different seasons and moods, but the new series of delicate single trees is a step beyond. Either hand or machine sewn, they hang, catching light and shadow, coming in and out of focus as you move around them.
