The last in this collection of outpourings of my distracted art.![](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_49WgWMT-Ve0/SbDDTtvFCgI/AAAAAAAAAE4/qqP3-xfwVW0/s200/Bengali_Decorative_Border.jpg)
I'm particularly proud of this, a decorative border for my father's sixtieth birthday card.
I love arts-and-crafts decorative borders, bursting with finely-drawn leaves, fruit and flowers, stemming from fancifully smooth curving branches and tendrils.
This interpretation of that... idiom... is based on some of the flora of Bangladesh: bananas, palms, mangos and papayas.

The process involved quite a bit of research and experimentation, making me wonder why I'm not submitting it for college. Here, too, is a view of my desk, at its most artistic and craftsmanlike.
