Growing


Last week, I held the painting to the window and I could see roots growing

This week the bean has sprouted!!!!
This week the bean was so strong it opened the top of the painting, and is growing out two openings.


This is the little lentil sprout:) Growing straight out of the painting!

Amazingly, the paintings have begun to grow!!! I made three, and two of them have sprouted. They both are totally different. One has huge bean sprouts, and the other has a minuscule lentil. (Both were pantry foods!)

This has been such an amazing project, witnessing the incredible growth of these tiny seeds. It is refreshing in these dark and cold days, when all seems still; to know that something is growing...
