Gnome Tree

Blue Ridge Parkway Paintings By Dawn Richerson

All around the sleeping gnome, the forest floor teemed with life. There was the buzz of excitement, an awakening unlike any other. She moved with elegance across the field of yellow, aware of the shadow and beyond it they who called her home through the thin timbers. This Soul of Place painting is from the Claytor Callings Series inspired by experiences at the Claytor Nature Center in Bedford, Virginia. The series is part of the Blue Ridge Blessings Collection from Virginia artist Dawn Richerson. What does your soul remember? What story of life is alive inside of you?
