Beautiful image! You can't hide amongst the withered leaves of last year, when your artwork is like blossoming leaves of joy to all who view it. Early Happy Birthday wishes to you with many more to come. :)
64 but does not look it - withered leaves? make a bonfire - xcellent
Beautiful image... :)
A fascinating image!!!
It would be hard to hide amoung the withered leaves when your talent for art is radiating so brightly. Excellent work!
Oh, I am SO glad you do not give in to the urge to hide - but rather celebrate life through your art, and let us celebrate with you. Happy, Happy Birthday - and thank you for your gifts!
Your just beginning to live at 64, I'm 378 and I'm still quick as a wink.This is absolutely beautiful as are you, the leaf textures are so beautiful!
Raindrops have to follow a long path through many layers of the earth before they are pure enough to surrender to the water of the source.===Happy birthday, dear friend, and may you know many happy and fascinating days.
Grattis i fskott... Hoppas att du f en sk dag med na o ka!! =)
I often picture myself at all the different stages of life, and contemplate Life, the ultimate trip of all time... "what must it be like to be X years old?"... well, as a kid I used to wonder what being an adult was like and now I am one I'm aware of the seamlessness of life, everything merging into everything else. I don't think it's something a child can truly comprehend... it's like you imagine these stages of life happen overnight, when in fact the metamorphosis is so gradual you barely even notice, if at all. I'm 28 but feel like I've been alive for so long... I guess it's all relative.
Such pathos is evident here, yet your expression seems to betray a calm acceptance. Those leaves may be wilting Gun but they are by no means dead yet, I hope for many more years in you! It's nice to fully see the gentleness in your eyes. I love this image, and thanks for showing yourself :-)
Absolutely beautiful!!! Excellent composition and color!! Don't try to hide your beauty. Age is a meaningless number.
I always said I'd either die young or get very old. Of course both terms are to be interpreted freely :) Borsy is right by the way, age is only a statistical thing, based on a fabricated concept of time.
a lovely image, for a lovely soul. You have the wisdom of your age, but the questioning and ready at marveling spirit of a child. And in this perefct combination, stays the secret of your art that blossoms from a fertile heart. Happy birthday, my dear :). We are born near in days :)
Thanks for your words, all of you. Sometimes I forget the richness it is to be old. Because I am not only 64, I am all the ages of my life that I have gone through. Not as memories, memories have a tendency to fade so fast, but as living parts of me. I am the little girl, the teenager, the young woman, the mature woman, all in one person. Therefor my images are like mirrors of all those parts living in me. And I thank you for accepting and encouraging me in revealing myself to me.
HUGS 2 U & Happy Birthday to a truely gifted & wonderful woman! you & your images have touched so many of us- thank you :)
Gun, I'd like to wish you well on your upcoming birthday and to let you know that your images have always been remarkable to see. I am looking forward to many more years of inspiration! Thank you for posting this one.
I like the way you revealed a part of your soul. And all the best for your happy day. I think, the best way to get old and stay young is never to forget the different stages of personal development. When my first child was born I realised how easy it is to forget my own development stages. Now my children remind me of me being a child...
Beautiful Wisdom - Savor The Knowing - Evolution in Expression - Wonderful Art -

You have indeed seen much, you have felt much, you have loved much, and you have shared much. Greater still, you have much MORE to offer! I thank you for your presence in my life, a glowing beacon from Sweden. Yoshi
a white rose a kiss on your forehead and a happy birthday. what.... , for the image , you know it's more than excellent .
I have often told my husband that I wish I could be laid to rest in a forest,cannot of course.But I deeply feel when I am wondering under the forest canopy,and see the life cycle evident on the forest floor.Autumn is my birth season,so I am partial and sensitive to the symbolism of that cycle.I do love this image....
this is just a wonderful autumn of live composition.very touching and so beautiful, so full of wisdom.i really love it. take care, my friend. !!!!!!! #:O) !!!!!!!!!!!
