finding art in everyday life
Art is everywhere in nature…this time of year we have such beauty surrounding us as the leaves turn from bright green to orange, red, yellow, brown and all the shades in between. Right under our nose we see art…that is if we are really looking.
As I cut off the last of my summer flowers to enjoy in a vase for a few days I couldn’t help but notice the underside of the blooms. Right in front of me was art. From the stem and leaves to the base of the flower the lines, curves, design, color…art at it’s best.
So much natural art to enjoy…
“life is like the flowers that grace our gardens…on the surface we see beauty…underneath we find strength.”vlos 2009
some of my favorite things…
Simplicity–living life with as few things as possible and letting go of things that keep me from living my dream.
Wide open spaces—I have spent too many years living in rural America, and oh how I love those wide open spaces.
The beauty of nature—flowers, gardens, bees and birds.
Family and friends
The cool crisp air of fall and the beautiful colors of the changing season.
Exploring new places.
…..and of course creativity which comes in many forms—painting, photography, fiber arts and re-purposing materials, either clothing or junk.
here is a piece of my original art with original verse which will be in the market place soon….
hope you fill your days with things that you love!
