… and the livin’s easy

Since moving to North Carolina in 1998, I’ve walked countless miles around Raleigh’s parks.

I’ve found the best places to wait for herons, when the ferns will emerge, and that wild turtles can learn to “come when called” for feeding.
So many park visitors are intent on their exercise, multi-tasking on their phones, or whizzing by on bicycles, that they miss their surroundings.
I hope that these paintings will remind people what they have been missing.
- Take out the earbuds.
- Put away the phone.
- Slow down for a just a while and enjoy the world around you.
