Lorna Crane is an artist, but she is also an explorer with a deep connection to the land. Combing the Australian beach, Crane hunts for feathers, leaves, fishing wire-- any items that she can fashion into painting brushes. As she paints with these found objects, she finds joy in the unexpected: "The freshness and spontaneity you can't get with anything else." Her creations are both "of the landscape as well as from the landscape."

    A sense of peace watching an artist find what inspires her to move out of her comfort zone. It's right. It's balanced. It's playful. It's the core of creativity.

    Lovely to watch the mark making, and to look at the brushes which are art forms in themselves.

    I love how this is so connect with nature. Really like that fact that she is making the brushes and then you watch it come alive on the video.

    There is nothing more intimate in the creation of art than using the natural. The elements for creating are all around us. To be an artist is to really "see." So we must always look. A wonderful video to spark individual creativity. 😊
