DON'T MESS WITH MOTHER NATURE

LIGHTS OF BLUE, DARK OF RED
9"h x 7"w pastel
14" x 11" linen matt, scrolled gold frame + museum glass

Pristine and bold the scenery unfolded under bright, 
blue clouds, as far as the eyes could see.

Bare loveliness of Nature threatened by Mankind.

Fools . . . that never learn.

    Love the painting and the poem.
    I enlarged the painting on my computer screen and stood across the room to see how it reads. The drama is magnificent!
