Wishing you peace, art and healing
for Easter,
Pesach,
Just-Post-Equinox,
Full Moon
and
Blue Moon.
I fell over in New Zealand. In February, I fell over in New Zealand Aoteaoroa outside Piha General Store. Just a little fall, but a pulsing ankle resulted.
How might I heal? How might any of us heal?

Heart of the Tree Fern
Waitakere greenness
Rest,
ice,
arnica
and….Tree Fern Woman.
A bit of art and
a bit of nature didn’t do any harm.
It helped.
It helped that I was staying in a cabin amongst the treetops, able to gaze softly into the heart of the fern.
It helped that I was able to ponder the spine of the kauri.
That ankle eased up in no time.

Finally! I
am sharing glimpses of my nourishing NZ Aoteoroa holiday.

It was a feed-the-artist retreaty time.
Mmmmm.

divinely curvey and strong
A type of artist date. A breath of fresh air.
Of course, I had to photograph inspiring textures.

Inspiring tree texture

How’s this for a texture?
Is it a rock?
Is it a rock on a sandy beach?

No. It’s a Tree.
Amazing
Talking of textures, here’s a link to the notion of a Mindful Kindful Texture Walk.
And another textured blog piece. This one wasÂ
What is the Texture of the South?
from my previous NZ visit two years earlier…to the Other Island.
And…ta daa…here’s Kauri Woman. She was also healing, I’d say.

Do you have any stories to share of art-nature healing?

Mystery
What is it?
Where?

Glad you enjoyed your NZ time; apart from the ankle mishap.

So much beauty all around the place in NZ, n’est-ce pas?

Certainly is. I am loving the change of colours in the leaves at the moment though not loving the idea of winter almost upon us.

So…you are getting a proper autumn? Sydney has been dwelling in the zone of endless heat. Which is great if you happen to be hanging out in a sweet swimming spot, but is otherwise weird. Weirdest autumn ever.

Yes, I heard it was 31 or 32 in Sydney today. Definitely weird.
