About Me
- Kerry O'Gorman
- I am an artist trying to make a living doing what I love.Sometimes its photography, sometimes needle felting, sometimes painting. I live on a five acre hobby farm in a rural area 45 minutes from Victoria B.C. I was a letter carrier for Canada Post for 10 years and after too many commutes and a few successful craft fairs, I decided to take the plunge and quit to pursue a life in the "starving artist" category. The holistic success has been tremendous. Living and learning along the way about myself, the world, the business of selling your wares and how it all affects you. Its all good.To have the gift of living where I live, and being able to walk amongst the trees and moss is a joy in my life. You can view some of my creations through my etsy shop at www.farmlass.etsy.com

Oh my goodness! I want to hug him. He looks so real and looking forward to Spring like all of us. You've created a sweetie pie!
So sweet!!
Yes, the spring is arriving here too, slowly, slowly. Dreams of gardens and green.
Adore your snow and ice photos. xxxx
Oh WOW of WOW! - what a wonderful bear - love his/her spectacles.
You are a nut! Thank goodness. I used to lose myself in seed catalogs and nursery catalogs this time of year, when I had a house and garden.
My guess is that next year I will be looking to start seeds for a patio garden! I am breathing this year, and will try to make up my mind as to what I would like when I am living here during gardening season.
How lucky you are to have a bear go through everything for you. Does he turn down the corners of what he thinks you would like?
This is one of those posts that is a breath of spring (fresh) air.
It's wonderful, delightful and so creative. Love the upside down flower pot.
Is the bear up for adoption or do you need his help digging holes for the seeds?
I just love your creations - and the bear with a seed catalog is great! Thank you for injecting some whimsy into my morning!
our growing season here is just shy of 100 days. and i was reading an article this week that says the zones have changed enough that next year's seed packets will reflect the changes in these zones.
your bear is adorable. truly.
"Sold." Sigh. He would have enjoyed a much longer growing season here in LA, though might find that fur coat a tad warm. Yet another enchanting creature, dreaming of spring, tra la. xo
