Painting Nature


I often believe that one of the best ways to gain an intimate appreciation for something, anything, is by drawing or painting the subject. It is then that you learn which strong lines and details identify something uniquely. By studying the subject so closely you begin to notice the minutia that create things of beauty in this world. 

Lauralee Harrington does a beautiful job of intimately expressing nature in this way. She has an entire line of handpainted clothing that is worth checking out.
