The Art of Landscape

Landscapes are physical and psychological vistas.

Travel together in the quest to find beauty...
The landscape leads us up and down the path, toward mind, body and spirit. Walk a journey in vast fields where games were played by gladiators who fought for a foot-hold called home. Explore nature, armed with a camera, paintbrush, sketchbook to journal the glory to be captured in studio.
