Today’s task involves making art in Nature … First, go to a nearby park or field or wooded area and sit for awhile (It helps if this space is one of your personal “favorites”).   Intently notice the different facets of the environment there – the trees, the leaves, the stones, the dirt, the grass, the water, etc.  Now find a space that seems to “call out” for beautification and, using only the natural materials nearby, make some “Nature-Art” (Feel free to watch the DVD “Rivers & Tides” beforehand for inspiration).   Your creation need not be seen by anyone else; only intended to further the Beauty of that particular place … After you are finished – and before you head for Home, pause to make a statement of humble Thanks for the opportunity to add your little bit to the Harmony of the Cosmos.

 

Bonus Activity:  Visit your artwork every day for two weeks, noticing how it evolves and shifts as it biodegrades.
