Nature's Inspiration......


These past few days have been spectacular!
Mother Nature has been really "showing off" ,,,


Amazing colors....so much inspiration..


 And texture too! I see why so many talented designers and manufacturers of paint, textiles and such get so many ideas from nature.


Photographers too! There were so many people out snapping photos yesterday while in such delight of this beautiful display....


I even thought about taking an art class .... and felt like....YES! I could paint these flowers...
or..i could TRY! 


Purple passion...


Solitary reach....


Golden glory....


Shelter and light....


Crossing over...

What's inspiring you lately?

Nature *always* inspires me...in so many ways, right now it's the ocean and it's many wonders for my art camps, so fun.
Yes, please take the painting class Miss. Ivy, it will be wonderful to see what your inner muse creates, and when you do....please, please share!! :)
Happy almost August...

Nature always inspires me and these are such beautiful images...makes me sad that Summer will soon be gone and along with it many of it's blooms. Have a great week. Mona
