Some rough sketches from a day out in nature last weekend. I never went out drawing/sketching before... usually I do this at home. : ) It was nice. I took the leaf and twig from the bench too.

Mini Stonehenge

Mini Stonehenge

This is Mini Stonehenge 4 x 3 inches (10.5 x 8 cm). I wanted to draw and paint Stonehenge. I like mini art. I plan to make a bigger one about 6 x 9 inches (17 x 24 cm)

Garden

This week I am Inspired by "Gardens". I was visiting a Garden Park (the "Grugapark" in Essen Germany) this weekend and was inspired by all the beauty and everything growing there. It was Beautiful, Blooming, Green, and well cared for. The Sun was shining; it was a beautiful day. Everyone should be inspired by all the nature and things growing around them. Reflect on Nature and Cultivation in our lives. 

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.- Oscar Wilde

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.

And we got to get ourselves back to the garden".
