Ganesha in the Forest

Ganesha in the Forest

I came across this scene while I was exploring the Island of Kauai.
I felt this forest before I could see it.
There was Love in the air and my heart opened wide to
feel nature all around me.
I pulled over and parked my car and walked into this forest.
Filled with sacred trees that the monks had planted to harvest
prayer beads.
Then I saw him, Ganesh . Covered with sea shells and hibiscus.
A sight to behold.
Ganesh holds the energy of overcoming obstacles. Reminding us that we have what it takes to overcome any obstacle. All we need to do is remain grounded in love and light.

Burgundy Day Lily

The Day Lily is here today and gone tomorrow.
With time moving so quickly, grasp at beauty when you see it
and don't let go.
Do you see her beckoning you to enter
to go with in. She is telling you to take that
inward journey now more than ever.
Get clear. Know where you can trust
ll the answers. Too many lies in the outside world.
You hold all the answers that you seek. Be quiet and
go with in.

Decadence

Sometimes nature serves up something so beautiful
that it can only be called decadent, delicious,
Fabulous, rich, and delightful.

I came across this beautiful begonia bursting with beauty and life force at the Self Realization Gardens

in Encinitas. One would venture to say that this plant had become self realized and met it full potential.

We are always endeavoring to become our fullest self and to share our God given gifts here on the planet.

This plant shared it's beauty with me and inspired me to paint it's likeness to share it's beauty with you.

Know that you are also a beautiful creation of God and by just being yourself, bring beauty to our planet.

Nature's Gifts
by Margot Carrera
Specialties: Nature Photography, Living Art, Digital Art and Design, Healing Arts, Feng Shui. Margot Sherry Bogdanow-Carrera’s lifelong dedication to nature photography, her preferred art form for portraying this Earth, the planet unto which we are born and bound to preserve, is evident throughout her website: www.CarreraFineArt.com. Nature, in return, provides us with everything necessary for the spiritual journey we take while we remain on Earth. Too many of us, preoccupied with our daily struggle to survive, have lost sight of that promise, forgetting that if we had cared for Earth, there would be no struggle. Margot Carrera’s avowed insightful and artistic intent is to remind humankind of their connection to and with Nature, to remember that every one of us are – or should be – devoted stewards of this Earth. One can readily observe her special bond with every object she photographs and how this inspires each memorable image. “When you look at my website,” says Carrera, “you will discover at least one singular image that speaks directly to you and helps you to recall your own beautiful connection to Earth."
