Trees exhale for us so that we can inhale them to stay alive.
Can we ever forget that?
Let us love trees with every breath we take until we perish.
Munia Khan

A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself.
Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air
and giving fresh strength to our people.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

You know me,
I think there ought to be
a big old tree right there.
And let’s give him a friend.
Everybody needs a friend.
Bob Ross

Nice blends. Straight, grounding base. LOL. Maybe could use a bit of leafy detail. Hmm. I’m suddenly in the mood for a salad. Haha.

I love spring anywhere, but if I could choose
I would always greet it in a garden.
Ruth Stout

You can’t buy happiness, but you can buy plants,
and that’s pretty much the same thing.

I switched to Arches paper for this one. I LOVE Arches! I feel better about this one. But I am still to structured. (see day 10) The pot saved this one from the never-to-be-seen pile. Haha. I decided a bit of splatter would make it more attractive.

Your hardest times often lead to the greatest moments
of your life. Keep going. Tough situations
build strong people in the end.
Roy T. Bennett

We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.
Aristotle

It’s not that I’m so smart,
it’s just that I stay with problems longer.
