The Hope in Love
Jeremy’s Forest

Jeremy’s Forest became real as I looked at Jeremy’s Trees and wanted to continue in creating a sky full of color and wonder. A sky full of future and love and comfort. I created a path to walk, and a goal to attain. The goal is deep in the tranquil forest, where only love remains. It reminds me of the journey on the path to happiness.

I sent out a request to my family and friends to share the feelings evoked when viewing Jeremy’s Forest.  My cousin sent an “Evocation from family: ” Having spent an on-and-off night camping atop a cliff, when peeking over the edge, it seems the morning light cutting through the tail of the disintegrating cloud system, tells me, after a cup of fresh “cowboy coffee”, it’s going to be a perfect day. Climb on! “

Love of Friendship
Trees in the Winter Sun

Gaelic tradition teaches each tree has a soul just as humans do, so I like to think friends are like trees.  They stand tall and strong. They support you when you need a whole new life; like a bird building a nest in a branch. If danger approaches they can just lift you up to a higher level, an upper branch. They are there to offer unconditional love. They are there in the sunrise after a long night, they are there in the twilight, sometimes only to listen or just be silent.

Love of Humanity
Far Away Beach

Is there anything better than being a little kid and going on vacation to the seashore? All of humanity was there to soak in the sun and to breathe the air. We were all joyously in love with our time away. We would swim for hours each day and then ride our bicycles until sunset. Far Away Beach was inspired by the seemingly arduous from the car to the ocean. It was so exciting and I could not wait, so it seemed to take forever, but once you were there, everyone was joyous and full of laughter.  People were kind to each other and shared with each other- all day long! Everyone plays at the beach. Young or old, everyone plays and has fun. I love humanity and approach every human as another chance to make a friend.
