Hosta,Clematis & Hosta Scanned I
Of my acitivity by my scanner in these past days my grandmother would have said to me (borrowing an aphorism from the Argentine work of the 19th century, Martín Fierro, “El diablo más sabe por viejo que por diablo,” as an introduction to this other one, “Cuando el diablo no tiene nada que hacer con el rabo espanta moscas.”
This translates to:
“The devil knows more not because he is the devil but because he is an old man.”
“When the devil has nothing to do he swats flies with his tail.”
Because I have been scanning plants since 2001 I have developed newer techniques to adapt to the pseudo artistic stuff I am now doing.
I promise that these will be the last I do for a while. My tail is beginning to hurt.
