January 20, 2013 -- vase with curled leaf and orange

It was sort of interesting the way this evolved. I started with the fatsia leaf, which was leftover from an earlier arrangement. It was dying/drying into a pretty shape, so I just laid it on the windowsill. Then I decided to put this green vase on it. I tried several things--a pansy, an orange peel, a different leaf--in the vase, then decided it was prettiest empty. Wanted some color, though, so I grabbed half an orange from the refrigerator and  posed it in front of the vase.
