Hello all nature and art lovers,
April follows March with another month of glorious weather
here in New Orleans.
With the horrors of war, disasters of epic scale and the continued gun violence across America,
the beauty of nature is a perfect place to take refuge.
The Total Solar Eclipse Monday, April 8, will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada.
People will gather from Texas through Maine as the arc of the sun passes north easterly, exciting nature lovers who will celebrate this rare phenomenon of our natural world.
Artists have always found inspiration in the beauty and
complexity of the natural world.
People love art that imitates nature not only because of its visual appeal, but because art often succeeds in capturing the
essence of natural phenomena.
In many cases art goes beyond visual representation and becomes a way to convey feelings and emotions.
I have experienced collectors brought to tears over a piece of art,
as I personally have been.
Everyday we have an opportunity to enjoy art in nature
and nature in art...
"The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you."
-The Beatles
With Love and Gratitude,
Angela
