Happy Thanksgiving!!!

      Green Chiles                                                                                       by Sarah Brown

I am making my famous chorizo and green chile stuffing. Although this year, the Anaheim chiles were a bit spicy; so, I left them to the side. Before I brought them to my dad's for roasting, I had to make a few arrangements. Their fragrance is still lingering in my studio. I wanted to post some new still life images that I made for the Thanksgiving holiday. I took some time reflecting on a new Japanese saying, " Kusa no Mono." I added the rooster for longevity, the indian basket for our history, the bench for welcoming guests, the basket and apple for the harvest(personal memories of apple picking), and the squashes for color. The fabrics are from a box of my mother's that I found in the attic.
