Bringing Balance with the Colors of the Seasons.

SPRING

SUMMER

 AUTUMN

  WINTER

It is wonderful to create, with the colors of the seasons

it brings so much balance to my life

For I feel that the colors you view through your eye that you see in Nature

Relate to the feelings you have in your soul 

The fresh, Spring Greens and Yellows

The Stronger, Summer Reds and  Greens

The waning, Autumn Oranges and Browns

 The Coolness, Winter Blues and Whites

I strive to be conscious of this in all  my creations

Love and light  Marie

Autumn leaves

Yesterday we raked the leaves and put them on the compost heap

Oh I do love the colors of Autumn.

The love of a Mother

This picture has always been a favorite of mine

It has an olde world feel to it, that I like

I often feel that I should have been born in an older time

I would have fitted right in.

Harvesting the Maize

Today we harvested the Maize 

We grow it for our hens

The day was windy and cool, real Autumn weather

The hens just love maize.

They free range and have a large area to roam around in

The rooster wakes us up at dawn every morning
