#butdoesitfloat For me the study of this #beautifuldecay is more of a meditative experience than an artistic one. It teaches me about the elegance and grace with which nature moves towards it’s inevitable aging and eventual death. There’s beauty in it till the very end. Nature does not struggle, fuss or agitate over its failure. It just does it’s thing and moves onto it’s next role- fertilizing the earth for future generations. Im learning to be more like this palm branch and float through life with grace. No matter what life throws my way. (at Parkdale, Toronto)
