Despite it being the frondescentia, we started the day with a frosting of snow on the ground. Per contra, the storm did provide today's #stickoftheday , this bifid and pulchritudinous piece of Copper Beech. Rare and prized for it's silvery bark and savory flavor. Exquisite
'Frondescentia' was a piece I did in 2013. It was initially inspired by a particularly generous bulb of garlic!! Then I started thinking about a world where nature has evolved so much, you could even live in it. Organic cities. #sciencefiction #fantasy #digitalart

It's that time of year when leaves unfurl.

What's the word I'm thinking of? Today, it's FRONDESCENTIA (n). It refers to the time of the year when plants unfold their leaves -- springtime, in other words. The image is Monet's 'Springtime', if you're wondering. #WordOfTheDay #words #vocabulary
