Making art in the forest

I've always enjoyed interacting with nature and using disorder to create something that is pleasing to my eyes.  Often I'm not choosing to record the moment because what's enjoyable is the act of creation and not in the final product.  This was a a piece of bark that had fallen down.  I saw an image in this decaying material and wanted to bring it out from hiding.  I hung it on the trail for others to hopefully find.

First post

I was wanting to allow others to share in the benefits that I experience while I am creating things.
I thought the option to attach labels to my post was ironic in the fact that I'm looking to avoid labels as much as possible in describing what I do. 
I'm looking to understand the moments in life that change the way we breathe.  I feel like I've found "God" in the moments between inhaling and exhaling.  When there is something that takes our breath away, I feel that "God" is looking to express a concept greater than words and I feel it is our responsibility to pause in that moment and experience it.
