I often return to nature’s familiar rhythms and forms for inspiration. Big skies and bountiful landscapes provide steady constants in our ever-changing human experience, and they surround us with assurance. Vast heavens speak of a higher power. The return of spring awakens new life. The intricacy of design dispels chaos. Nature’s offerings give cause for hope, delivery from the unknown, and much-needed respite in uncertain times. They stir my soul and remind me to keep searching.
