I’ve been traveling, so there has been no felting. However, I think there is plenty of inspiration while traveling.

We left out of Port Canveral, Florida, but before leaving we spent a day at NASA.  It may seem odd not to highlight all the missles, but I really enjoyed this:

First stop Amber Cove Dominican Republic.

Very colorful country, but poor.

The first pic depicts the consolidation of the cultural influences of the country, the Native Taino Indians, Spanish and French influence. Today the Rum and Cigar industry greatly influence the economics of this country besides tourism.

The next stop was St. Thomas. We chose to visit the Coral Reef Ocean Park.  I loved the textures of the corals. My sister and her husband chose the encounter with the turtles.  Galina, the Lionfish is for you!

Next stop Puerto Rico and the El Yunque National Rain Forest.

The last pic is bamboo, my favorite. I took another  pic while moving past and I like this one since it shows the speed of how this grass grows and dies.

We chose a stingray encounter on Grand Turk.

I really like the crackled look of the last two pics with the stingrays.  I wonder if I can recreate that in felt.

Would you believe people kissed the stingrays and had a stingray massage? I’m sorry I didn’t get pics of that. What inspiration have you had recently?
