This project is not part of Ancient Landscapes itself
but is another environmental experience, organised this time by Victoria who painted
the magnificent landscape we use in our publicity….

Have you ever felt disconnected from nature? Do you
only capture its beauty fleetingly, rushing through your daily life?
I have a one-word suggestion for you...
BLOSSOM!
The wonder of the bud and the explosion of thousands
of unfurling petals creating a cacophony and mass majesty of blooms. Nature
trumpeting spring, life and infinite possibilities!
We lose so much connection of humanness when we forget
the seasons apart from the disruptive side of its nature.
Sometimes we can feel like we’re grating against it
rather than basking with it in harmony, sharing the seasons joy.
To me there are few greater weighted displays of
nature’s celebration than the fresh fizz of 'Blossom' the subject and title of
my new exciting project, kindly supported by the Arts Council England, The
National Lottery and Arts Derbyshire.
The blossoms are transient, urgent for their life,
then they’re gone.
Come with me in awe, see the blossoms and my work in
progress or bring your brushes and enjoy, capture a place in time and
reconnect- if only for that moment, maybe that moment yearly?
If they were not here on our planet, if they didn't
bloom, what would we miss?
What if we were separated from nature and lived only
remotely in an electrified wire filled world and lost connection to nature
completely? What if we forgot we were any part of it?
For me my life would ache with the loss, nature is as
grounding to me as it is uplifting!
Join me?
Fizz!
