I like to bring flowers home to add beauty to my homelife & I like to wait for them to die so I can arrange dead bouquets around my house. I love the jewel & softer tones dead leaves, petals & stems take on after senescence (See my series, Senescence in my portfolio to learn more about the death of plants).
I was arranging one of my dead bouquets when a few of the pedals hit the table-top in a seemingly arranged design & I was inspired. I had a collection of handmade papers & I was struck with an idea & this is the result.
Paper from @jpp Japanese Paper Place in Toronto, Canada.

Romans 6:23 NIV
[23] For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Death - a spiritual death - comes for sinners but our spirit is eternal everlasting in Jesus. These flower series explores spiritual death & the decay of self in the absence of positive living in Jesus.
