Isn't gardening about letting your imagination bloom? Dreaming about all the beautiful flowers the little seeds you planted will turn into?
This cat character, imagined by Barbara Ana, is fully equiped with the tools of the trade, hand shovel, trident and watering can, surely intending to look after her little garden with great care.
She stares straight ahead with her hypnotic eyes, lost in her dreams. Come spring and summer, bunches of wildflowers in many shapes and colours will spring from the ground and turn into the most amazing of gardens.
While this time the main character is a cat with wide open eyes, this cross stitch pattern is somewhat reminiscent of the "Dreaming Girl portraits" by Barbara Ana, where the character's dream and the background landscape mysteriously blend into one.
