Nature's Artwork
I’m drawn to natural patterns, like most other people. When you choose wood for a piece of furniture or flooring, or any other application, you pick the wood grain with the pattern that you most respond to. It’s the same thing with granite slabs for your kitchen counters. The pattern and color that you enjoy the most is what you will choose. But natural patterns and textures extend to so much more, like fuzzy patterned fungi growing on a tree stump, rugged tree bark, ice bubbles in a pond in winter, a snow laden tree. Nature is the ultimate painter and sculptor. She brings things into existence and makes them grow in patterns, she freezes them according to the laws of physics of crystal structures, and she paints them interesting colors. She surrounds us with so much beauty, it’s hard to see it all. The colorful arrangement of the feathers on a duck, the camouflage of various insects and animals, the beautiful bright fish in the ocean, and the waves of sand molde
