Artist and 'feltist' Lucy Sparrow opened an entire store of handmade felt products in NYC and London #WomensArt #Saturday

Four images, the first showing a woman standing in the interior of what looks like a realistic store with products covering the shelves, the three other images show close-ups of the 'products', such as familiar jars, cans and chocolate bars all created with felt

A white and grey adult gull standing on breakwater posts with its mouth wide open; there is a bush next to it and then a baby gull, mottled grey and brown, with its mouth wide open as well. A couple of other plants are visible and there is a pale blue sky behind them.

Water with water lilies and, on the bank, a group of white horses in a field full of green grass looking at the photographer.
The sky is blue and full of white clouds.
Horses and clouds are reflected in the water.

Dear One,

I see you.

I see the way you’re carving yourself open to hold more love inside—paring away before to make room for now.

I see the way you spark and fire—the fierce and the lovely of you.

I see you. And I marvel.
