"Every bad situation is a blues song waiting to happen." — Amy Winehouse

Materials:

• Eucalyptus leaves
• Elephant ear pods
• Ata fruits on a stem
• Lichen covered twigs
• Feathers
• Agave pods
• Glass beads

I found the Elephant Ear pods at a local garden center in a box of pricey potpourri.  Their bluish gray hues immediately caught my eye and, almost from that moment on, I knew what my next PodArt project would look like.  It took way more than a month to bring it to life.  It's a dark, dramatic piece, almost gothic in appearance.  I love it.
