Bring Nature Home in Paintings

"Nature resides in the soul of art." - avrotor 

Paintings and Verses by Dr. Abe V Rotor

Living landscape in the sala.*

  

If you can't go to Nature;

in the magic of art,

 bring her home instead,

and never depart.

Befriending wildlife on a wall

Wonder if wildlife be tamed,

touch them like friend,

keep them pets at home,

faithful to the end.

Prince Neptune in a Passing Review, Lagro QC

Mythology is alive in us, 

it will never depart,

as long as Nature resides 

in the soul of art.

Play with the breeze

and sail at ease.

Nature at Living with Nature Center

Nature in the living room 

with happy children -

what more shall they ask

from this great friend?

 (second from left) at St. Paul College Surigao

Tame her on a wall mural,

she roars into whisper,

 prayer, verse and song;

in thanksgiving 

we awe and wonder.  

Dolphins on the run

Capture the dolphins on the wall,

befriend them and their kin;

ask them before they're gone

where in the world they've been.

Take the backseat, reason; 

give way to imagination. 

right brain over the left,

in a sacred moment.

Soldiers of Nature at the Living with Nature Center   

"One for all and all for one;"

 these musketeers pledge 

 soldiers of Nature,

to protect her always

to the very edge.

Queen of the sea and sky,

 titular yet well-meant

 commitment as guardian

of the environment.

Travelogue into the Coral Reef  Painting by Lyn 9 and JP Reyes 7, 

Get your paintbrush and dive into the coral reef, 

the great forest of the sea;

Re-create through colors on canvas nature's gift

of biodiversity;

Edge of land, where the blue sky and sea meet,  

and man with the  Almighty.
