Drawing Close, Encountering Joy: An Artist's Psalms and Prayers for the Earth - Paperback
by Janice E. Kirk (Author)
From Fort Rock to Hovenweep, redwoods to the Rockies, ocean to high desert, here is an invitation to connect with the natural world. Psalms and prayers for the earth unfold from early morning dew through daytime hours to the night watch. Delight in the colors of dawn, linger in the fellowship of the forest, savor the solitude, lament the losses, be refreshed by tumbling waters, celebrate the glories of life, and hear the robin singing . . . singing. Draw close, enter into the experience. Encounter the joy and peace of the natural world. Through the eyes of an artist, discover nature's abiding witness to the "wondrous Mystery wrapped in beauty."
A lifetime of camping and sketching the American West is inspiration for artist and author, Janice E. Kirk.
