The Volatile Lady Mer

Theatre is my work wife * Photography is my mistress * Music is my 1st love * Art is my muse. I obsess about vintage cameras, vintage rides, anything letterpress, the joys and frustration of typography and the feel of ink on paper. My boy & Pups are what ground me.

"It seems unholy to move such venerable patriarchs from the land where they have lived so long in meditation and repose. But they are here, nevertheless, in this country which was a wilderness when they and their art had reached a high degree of elegance and culture. And on the wide green terrace before the stately Brookline home of Mr. Larz Anderson, noted statesman and scholar, these noble trees, samurai of their realm, seem quite at home. That may be because adaptability is a quality of the nobly born." - Rainosuke Awano (House Beautiful, 1933) Chamaecyparis Obtusa, 'Chang-Hiba', Compact Hinoki Cypress (started 1787, part of the original Larz Anderson Bonsai collection) #bonsai #hinokicypress #dwarftree #history #japan #lifeinminiature #larzandersonbonsai #arnoldarboretum #boston #getoutside #emeraldnecklaceparks #fujixe2 #myfujifeed (at Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University)
