About me

This is the real secret of life — to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realise it is play. The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That’s all there ever is. I’m here to tell you that the path to peace is right there, when you want to get away. When you are present, you can allow the mind to be as it is without getting entangled in it. If you miss the present moment, you miss your appointment with life. That is very serious!

Blackberry Blossom from Nature As Is

"Blackberry Blossom" - a quick pencil sketch and watercolour done from a photograph taken by 'Nature As Is' - on Bockingford 300gsm watercolour paper - Maree

The colours in the photograph are actually much more subtle, (but what's artistic licence for?!) with the flower being almost white with tinges of pink, almost light purple - will re-do it at a later stage and try and capture the correct colours.

Thank you for allowing me to use your amazing photograph Crista!
