Balance

Balance is my latest offering! She was started before our move to WA and is made of mainly recycled items including a body scrubber thingy, old forks, rusty metal and a pony shoe dug up on our property. Any one who knows me will laugh as this is my favourite truism - that we have to get a good balance in our lives....and a move to unfamliar parts certainly puts a strain on that theory BUT it is about taking a breath, looking up, being wise and holding on until the balance is better!

Thank you all. The hair is the little wooden pegs of a body scrubber.
