Verdigris

Today’s sensual exploration is this, the texture of old tarnished copper, the verdigris that gives an ancient object character and life. 

I’m taken also by the endless possibilities of what might lie through such a keyhole, and by the suggestion of sun warming the outer side.

The lovely bluey-green of Chinese coins . . .
