I watched a fantastic Ken Burns documentary a few weeks back on the “Dust Bowl”. Highly recommend. These inky/sooty watercolor paintings by David Rathman put me in mind of it. True Grit.

I live in one of the most biodiverse areas in the country. With an abundance of flora and fauna one cannot help but be amazed at its beauty. Many of the Native American tribes shared the space as sacred for hunting so one might think of the area as the prototype for preservation and land management.
Photographer extraordinaire, Elmore DeMott, captures this wonder in her nature photography. Her work reveals the hand of man along side the hand of the Maker. Fires burn along rows of trees which have replaced the virgin forest. Get the picture?

I’m celebrating Mother’s Day dreaming of the genius of James Nares’ single brushstroke paintings. He seems to have a magic wand. Voila! Swoop!
