Embracing Nature
"Great art picks up where nature ends" ~Marc Chagall
Artists have always been inspired by nature. What we observe, feel and experience of our natural world and our place within it can be interpreted through different mediums.
"If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere" ~Vincent Van Gogh
Nature should be the main theme of the artwork, but can have other elements as well.
Show us how you embrace nature in your work.
