This is my workplace (at home).
Last year I bought two NO WATER FLOWERS with Santa as motive and gave one to fK - after all she is not only my friend but helped me with the presentation etc etc.
I got the last two, one Santa is a bit crooked, I kept that one.
Hers after three weeks:
Mine after five weeks...
Then, finally:
What you see on my "laptop" - we will see for real soon again! It´s "our" Shopping Center!
And now we are done with Christmas.
This is for...
... Nicole.
"These mathematicians changed the world
Al-Khwarizmi (780–850)
Al-Khwarizmi was a renowned Persian scholar who made numerous contributions to mathematical thought. The word "algorithm" is derived from Al-Khwarizmi's name, as he is credited with introducing algebraic concepts to the West."

Have a great Sunday!

Your workspace looks cozy and inspiring, and having a Santa-themed flower adds a playful seasonal touch, even if Christmas is behind us now. The glimpse of “our” shopping center on the laptop gives it a lovely sense of continuity with real life.
Thank you, yes I look forward to go there on Tuesday with a hard jet-lag, LOL. And then I hope to get my workplace back. I work at home.
I just love wax amaryllis and have enjoyed several this year. Yours are just gorgeous. They do a much prettier waxy base in Germany than here, where our bases are just plain old wax. I end up putting the base into a pot or something to disguise it but if I had one like yours I would show it off!
Hello, Iris
The Amaryllis blooms are lovely! The wax base is pretty too.
The Henry image is cool! Take care, have a wonderful week.
Oh, it came from Denmark, actually! Well... Europe. Wish we grew bigger #Ukraine...
Hi Eileen, well, we head off tomorrow... stress³ for me...
Dear friend Iris, these are all beautiful.
Sending you warm hugs 🫂 🤗 and much love.
Love your waxed amaryllises! I got one and cut the wax off and will try to get it to rebloom.
...it teaches patience!
Thank you, dear friend Linda, warm hugs and much love on the way back!😘
Hmm... if ai Wasn´t on the way to Perth... let me know if it worked!
...sure does!
Tom is a wise man when he says that the blooms teach patience. I'm glad yours has flowered. I should have got one myself because those blooms are beautiful. Enjoy!!! And happy rest of your weekend too Iris. hugs-Erika
Those are beautiful, especially the red one, Iris.
Thank you, Erika, yes I am learning to be patient - since childhood... Ow. Off to the steak house soon.. Ingo acts so normal I am beeeep. Travel! Hugs... hope to enjoy here and at your place
Hi Iris. First I want to answer a bit in your comment on SITAR. Your art journals are who you are. Your create from your heart and that is magical. You say things are crooked, do you know that brings joy to everyone who sees them? Your art tells a real story and I and others relate to that. That's what art it. When others relate and feel an emotion. Now for the no water plants. I have never seen these before and I want one. LOL The wax is amazing and of course the Christmas theme. They are both beautiful but I love the white one best. Be able to watch it take hold, what a joy. I love this series you have been sharing. I have learned a lot and had no idea that this fine man is named for "algorithm". His portrait has strong features with loving eyes. Henry is quite bright today. Thank you for sharing with SITAR and remember the portrait challenge is optional. Have a good week.
Yes, RedPat, I always give the beauty to others... and with joy.
The crooked ones need a home, too, and they always find it here :-) Glad you love the series! I skip some "boring" ones, though...I could not do the portrait today - blame it on Ingo - he took me to the steak house!
Way Flipping Cool
Cheers
The amaryllis are beautiful.
I have never seen these amaryllis before. So pretty!
I do like how Henry is blooming :)
All the best Jan
I have never seen the no-water waxed amaryllis. That is a neat idea. The blooms were lovely.
I have never seen a white amaryllis, nor the wax ones either. Here I see them growing freely in gardens, though mostly gardens of older homes where things have been growing for decades already. Not many of them left in some suburbs, they get sold and torn down, replaced by town houses or apartments with no room at all for gardens.
It took a while! Cheers
And no water!
Yes, I´ll buy one again!
Henry says thank you!
Was a first for me, too!
Ingo´s Grandma had one that grew forever. Right when you came in in the little hall - with water, though. We lived with her for some years it was a lovely sight, also when later we visited her. She always greeted us with, "my children!" Now I sure miss her!
and how they have bloomed how beautiful and full of inspiration from year to year to continue to buy, they sure to brighten up the dull days. Happy creative week Tracey xx
Yes, I say good bye to them today, though... and creative Ii can only be in my mind... off to Perth xx
Love the flowers, such a pretty red.
