Name this Plant

Several years ago I was at one of those wonderful summer outdoor dining patios and was struck by the beautiful potted plants. I couldn't resist and took a small clipping of these green peas and popped it into my pocket. At home, I started it in a small clay pot and after several years, plenty of neglect, re-plantings and mostly sun this little plant thrived. It likes to hang over the side in wonderful strings of green pearls. I love it but I don't know anything about it, not even its name! So if you've had this beauty in your life and can tell me a little about it ...well, it would be fun to know more!

O is for Orange

O is for Orange on today's "Roy G Biv" Day!  8"x8" canvas, fabric, netting, stones stitched onto silver square, bottom section marks with oil pastel. First posted in 2008.

"Baptism of Dreams"  and "Faith, Being and Necessity" are two monotypes from waaay back. Both have sold. I think they were more orangey red! Next month will be the letter Y - yellow and for exact dates check blog Jennifer Coyne Qudeen

"Portal in Citrine"

22"x15", cotton, satin, metallic paper, embroidery, machine stitching, stamped cloth and flour paste resist.

This art cloth is large for me and I trimmed it with an edging from a cut up scarf. I used  some studio finds such as metallic paper ( it was rolled up in a corner) and the black mottled cloth that had been a fragment of a printmaking rag ...beauty can be found anywhere! Mixing the color citrine and using it to dye or color different fabrics was a fun challenge.
This art making journey I'm on is of ancient lessons and stories, about entering gates, portals and thresholds ... places of wisdom and discovery. I'm finding the study very inspirational and full of imagery.This particular gate concerns mystery, the idea there are mysteries and some are unknowable ... the mystery is that there are mysteries.
