    Wow. The paper wings are my favourites. And the emptiness in the papers you cut them from. Reversed wings. Very interesting thought. Inspiring!

    I'll post later today.

    I thoroughly enjoyed your post. I loved your wings, the process, the owl, the geese, woodpecker code. I love birds too. What's not to love about such an amazing species. I want to go to Cape Cod someday. I hear it's incredible.

    hello,
    your wings are wonderful! isn't it interesting how we all treat the same word...so many underlying similarities - like Ariane's birds and yours. amazing!
