You inspire me in many ways....your art, the way you look at nature, your willingness to share your knowledge. Artists see the world through a different lens. We see the subtle and the powerful as we observe nature. I especially enjoy your daily posts on Facebook as you share your morning observations and greet the day. Thank you so much, my friend!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04936551836543496628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708111215873269960.post-49684233768150679562014-07-14T10:21:20.033-05:002014-07-14T10:21:20.033-05:00I'll be following you dear Kate.
