Leftovers From Earth Day
As I’d mentioned in my post “New Stuff” I had some plans for Earth Day and had prepared a number of graphics. Well, I couldn’t focus on Saturday morning to finish my articles and my weekend project took more time than I’d planned so I only had the chance to share Bean’s Earth Day comments. But I still wanted to share my Earth Day inspirations with you. I chose three quotes form people I’ve always found inspiring and matched them up with my nature art. Please feel free to download and share them any day of the year!
This image is based with my painting “Running Through the Woods”.
I debated using the quote above with my painting “Paths I Have Walked” because I am a deliberate barefoot girl, but I remembered that part of the inspiration for taking these photos was that sense of wonder I’ve felt at walking through that cathedral of trees.
And I could not forget the quote I’ve been wearing as a button or a patch or just thinking each time I’m out in the woods or a field or even in my own back yard. I had intended to use it with another summer image, a photo for this one, but instead another painting called to me, the one I called “Promises to Keep”.
But I thought I’d share that extra image here because I like that one too. “Discovery” was one of those photos that I was disappointed in at first because I’d intended the focus to be exactly the opposite—that long tunnel of green with the focus on my great niece and great nephew exploring wildflowers off the trail in the woods. But though I did miss that shot and still wish I’d gotten it, sometimes things work out as they are intended, and I love the focus taken off the humans and placed on the lush green growth of the woods. A lesson for me.

Love how your beautiful kitties understand the importance of recycling – purrs to them all!
If you raise them up right, Chris, they find it a challenge!
