"We artists have been affected by patterns in nature since day one. Every line we lay to paper and every move we make is part of the magical sequence - and the line goes where it needs to go depending on one's influences."

Kristi Bridgeman

the vivid green at this time of the year is fabulous. The lizard was undisturbed, with its body flattened to catch as much warmth as possible. Go large and lose yourself in the maze of colours..

These seem to be more abundant than any other butterfly around here. I had them in my yard in New Mexico and they ate my Nasturtiums, so if you have any be mindful of the larvae it lays on the plant.

"In matters of visual form we sense that Nature plays favorites. Among her darlings are spirals...the spiral is the height of versatility, playing roles in the replication of the smallest virus and in the arrangement of matter in the largest galaxy"

~Peter S. Stevens author of Patterns In Nature Penquin, 1976, p.3
