Loving metaphors

Alexandra speaks about finding her groove in the making of jewelry. I relish in expressing my self with the use of pictures as metaphors. I've photographed fire hydrants all around NJ as symbols of corked expressions. A broken sunflower represents a broken spirit, sand castles on the beach represent childhood imagination and fulfillment. And so on. My mind sees pictures as metaphors. It is clear to me now.

Mango and sardines - a metaphor. Can you guess what for?

The sweetness and tears (saltiness) of life? How they often come together?

Indeed. A very creative observation. I like the personal intepretation of images.
