October & the Natural World

                                                                         

My own artwork has connected me to the natural world – the imagery providing a tether to the experiences I have out in the wild.  When I am working and using all my resources to stay present with clients, that connection is renewing and rejuvenating.  We are coming to know reasons for how and why nature refuels and renews us (Nature Fix by Florence Williams).  We are learning why a hike in the forest, or a walk upriver can heal us.   The subject and focus of my illustration-focused work and fine art is often natural elements.  Making art that includes these elements allows me to reconnect and realign with, to recapture my experience and allows for deeper observation, enriching the relationship with nature and its strengthening, inspiring, comforting and renewing qualities.
