Make the time in your own family's life for a little storytelling and adventure to illustrate this crucial wisdom and go explore some natural areas, get out for a walk, even if it just in the local park. Get down on your belly and feel the Earth, smell the Roses, splash through puddles or streams barefoot, watch all the amazing forms of life we share this planet with and allow their lives to open your heart once again to the wonder of life. Let the experiences you have with all you encounter renew your faith in beauty and truth. Find a green space that cleanses you and imparts some wisdom, study the symbolism of the animals you encounter, even if it is as simple as a frog and perhaps learn something new. Totems can teach your children, transform your life and inspire your Art. The wisdom they are meant to share is based in truth and the idea that we are but one piece of the puzzle of life on Earth.

"I have been making images for nearly 35 years of various

ecosystems and their flora and fauna, but more importantly of

life at that moment the shutter opens and freezes time for a

while. I have always viewed photography and Art as a tool used to unravel the forgotten knowledge of our ancestors, a way to express the constant yearning amongst most of us for knowledge and understanding of the natural world, it's peace, wonders and inherit divinity."
