Rich are the hues that come alive on the Idaho hillsides in the southeast side of the state. The warmth of emerald and crimson combined provide comfort even on the coolest of fall mornings in the Swan Valley of Idaho.
I am constantly surprised at how others see beauty in this world. There are often times images that are captured that many find a common connection to. This particular image seems to be one that I was able to find that somehow, seems to be a favorite of many who have purchased artwork from me.
I love finding the common story between those who favor a particular image and the stories behind them.
September is most noteably one of my favorite months of the year. It is a time for change, and although, many of us find change uncomfortable - it is enevitable. Change always occurs, little stays the same. It is the beauty that can be found in change and metamorphosis that is worth taking a second look. Whether it be discovered in nature or in the people that we care about, the path that growth and rebirth take place in our world is somehow intriquing to me.
I look forward to discovering places in this world that remind me of parallels to our lives. There is much in the natural world that mimics the very stories of our lives. Birth - youth - maturity in years - older and wiser - death: Repeat!
Looking forward to Fall is the anticipation that fuels my desire to get up and keep going once September rolls around. I love finding images that remind me of the maturity of this world as evident in the seasons. As much as I enjoy engaging in conversation with those who have lived life fully into the maturity of their years. There is wisdom to be gained from those who have gone before me and have experienced much life. In nature, I see the colors of fall, much in the same way - this world has experienced much and there is great beauty in the moments of realizing that simply because you have lived a life of many years, makes you no less beautiful than a new born or a youthful young life on the cusp of discovery.
May you find that you are beautiful, regardless of how many or how few years you have lived - and regardless of the seasons of life you have experienced!
