Winter has come, leaving all of the trees bare and the earth hardened and wet with snow. This is my favorite time of year and I can't help but look around at the inspiration that fills each of my senses. Above is a image from my show back in August; Sustain: Nature Provides. I am posting it simply because today when I looked outside, I thought of how lucky I am to be seeing Nature in its purity and how protective I am to keep it that way. Every part of our past, present, and future stems and depends upon it. Today...give a tree a hug! Maybe you should give someone you love a hug as well so you don't look like a complete looney.
