Well ..... I said I would take a few months off to explore the inner workings of my heart....within two days I had a call from Ireland, and before I know it I'm designing gates and a great sweeping stairway which is growing from my passion for orchids and leaves ... I have designed the stringers to have a basket weave similar to the wattle fence in Germany and this will allow for a natural growth of the ballustrading .... Ahh ... there's nothing like a life of doing what you love and even getting payed for it .....

 

I found a superb link to orchids that I know you will all find inspirational ... such great shapes to abstract from ...

 

enjoy
