Inspired by the fascinating ways various things interact, overlap and intersect. You’re invited to investigate connections in the web of life through the pages. Feel free to cross the lines and play with possibilities. Each choice can evoke different moods, energies and interesting perspectives. What colorful touches will you add?
All 33 scenes were hand-drawn and scanned straight from a sketchbook. It can be worthwhile to embrace the beauty of imperfections, the vitality of a quirky human touch and unexpected turns taken along the trails. You can adopt a snail’s pace if you like, tell inner critics to take a hike. Pause to be present, catch your breath, and reap the benefits of art therapy and stress-relief in this nature-themed coloring book.
Explore the scenes while participating in the creative process through your color choices or use scenes for writing and story prompts as they are. Follow your own whims and wonder. What if a leaf is really a feather or a wing? What if there’s a family of stick figures hiding in a garden or a sky is full of new constellations? This is the fun of co-creating!
May you enjoy getting lost in the process or finding your way to a calm center. It can be a dreamy escape or a mindful meditative moment for presence, rest, relaxation, reverence, reflection, rebellion or connection. It can also be a lovely way to celebrate curiosity, collaborate and color with friends or family. It may lead to interesting conversations and sharing cherished memories across generations.
Makes a great gift for nature lovers, plant lovers, or sending get well wishes with a soothing activity to appreciate during healing and recovery or to donate to schools, youth centers, medical waiting rooms, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, rehabilitation programs or shelters.
Delve into a peaceful creative escape with a modern twist on the folk art of Appalachia and communion with nature whether you choose to add color or not! Scenes were often drawn while observing botanicals, insects or animals in the Blue Ridge Mountains and are infused with a deep reverence.
Thank YOU so much for supporting artists/authors like me!
