The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way… but to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself – William Blake

About the Optimism of Color Blog

Every Tuesday and Friday,  I’m posting a photo or piece of art that I’ve created that reflects what I call the Optimism of Color. Through vibrant colors and bold visceral forms, these works shout out my joy at being alive, and my good fortune at being able to continue to make art after a near death experience.

Each of the images I post brings a smile to my face. I hope they bring you similar joy and laughter through the Optimism of Color.

  1. Gorgeous, I love trees, and excellent quote. I hadn’t heard that one from Blake before. I have to write it down. It may come in handy with my tree photography.
