The Turtle Love Co. blog

Whilst perusing through the Maine Home and Design online mag, I discovered a refreshing article about a few artists whose work is all about their experience of nature. Since most of our artisans have told us the same thing and we are kind of  nuts for nature-inspired designs, I kept on reading.  Paintings by Ingrid Ellison were my favorites, maybe because her creative expression is fueled by her passion for gardening. It seems like things are growing out of her canvas. What Mary Barnes says about her reverence for nature and the disbelief of such beauty makes me want to run to the woods right now. But I won’t, because I’m writing this blog. Maybe later. However, if we all spent as much time absorbing the pristine energy of nature as we did absorbing the internet, we just might breathe a little deeper.
