zen

be like a tree
connect with your roots
turn over a new leaf
bend before you break
enjoy your natural beauty
keep growing

i didn't say that, someone else did, i just couldn't find the source.

i was going for a "group of seven" painting effect but i couldn't quite get it. i'm sure it can be done but it's late and i can't open my eyes anymore!

thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are truly appreciated.

Lovely processing- I 'm not sure what a "group of seven" painting effect is, but I like the one in watercolor style just fine.
