back alley weed patch
Ah one of my favourite childhood plants, pineapple chamomile. When I was a kid in Victoria we had a back alley with lots of pineapple chamomile plants. I loved to pick off the yellow heads and crush them between my fingers and smell and smell. I also used them to decorate fairy nests.
A lot of dirt and little white and beige rock chips, pineapple chamomile and a weed with heart shaped seeds and tiny white flowers, this is a tiny world magnified. I paint delicate with hundreds of strokes and dots creating a confetti fireworks effect that creates a back alley fairy magic feeling.
