Sometimes one has to remember that Nature creates a better picture than a sketcher or painter can.
Then again, the talented ones – be it with fabric and thread, needle and yarn, watercolor and paper – can create their own beauty for the eye, image from the soul.
As Summer continues to warm things up, now’s the time to really look around.

That’s what I love about the desert. Sunrises and sunsets that I can see. They are in plain view with clear skies and mountains for the backdrop.
It is nice when city lights don’t get in the way of nature’s beauty. Of course now we have the haze to worry about that has now dulled the brightness.
