I am so excited that Spring is here. A time of new beginnings and nature bursting back to life.
It is a great time to get out and walk again, to see the leaves budding on the tree branches and the daffodils showing all their glory.
Nature is one of the main influences for my art so I like to take photos at every opportunity, I don’t use them as subject matter for my paintings but inspiration. They conjure up the emotions I was feeling or the thoughts that were going through my mind at that moment.
Nature also causes me to think about the Creator and elicits thanksgiving and joy for how awesome it all is. From the sunrises and sunsets to the mountains and valleys and everything in between.
When chaos is all around, to create something that has never been seen before gives me hope and fixes my eyes on God.
