There’s a reason we think of our natural environment as “Mother”. Parks, forests, rivers….all sooth our mind and ground us in being alive. Walking in nature, thinking about a tree, watching water ripple, dreaming in clouds are  all signals to my soul. The intangible experience of sitting in the quietude of the nature at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden and taking a photo with my I Phone was enlarged when I had the inspiration to paint my impression in acrylic. Like a photo, this painting captures a moment, ineffable in words.
