If you are open to wonder and willing to wander, you can discover new ways of seeing and beauty just about anywhere. Even in your own backyard.
Lately I have been wondering what it might be like to live in the middle of nowhere. I mean almost entirely off the grid. Now, I already know that I would need an Internet connection, so I wouldn’t be completely pioneering on my own with my husband and pups. But still, what would happen to me if I woke up every morning and went outside to pick breakfast from my garden/farm? What would happen to my mentality? What would happen to my art? A rhetorical questions because we all know it would change. Even if I live in this same exact apartment, in this same exact town, in five years the work I produce will not be the same as it is today. My work already feels a lot different then it did a year ago. My focus is shifting gears, my priorities are changing.
