I touched an ancient tree.
Worry vanished.
A gift.
No, a birthright,
an inheritance,
and a responsibility
to be,
and so be a gift in return.

This exhibition showcases 20 works inspired by Riverwalk, Poet's Walk at Ayr Mount, the Johnson Mill Nature Preserve, and other local places that elicit the spirit of shinrin-yoku….forest bathing. Included are nine new large canvases by the artist, two of which are combined into a 6-foot diptych, 'New Hope Enchantment.'
Three additional canvases will be added to the exhibit for the August Last Fridays reception, two of which will be combined into an 8-foot diptych.
