"The enjoyment of scenery employs the mind without fatigue and yet exercises it, tranquilizes it and yet enlivens it; and thus, through the influence of the mind over the body, gives the effect of refreshing rest and reinvigoration of the whole system." Frederick Law Olmstead, landscape architect and creator of Central Park Olmstead captures the ability of landscape to inspire both stimulation and tranquility. My paintings and drawings convey this experience of nature by embodying an emotional reality of rejuvenation.
