I believe: Listening to the land is the first and most important step toward preservation and conservation. We must develop a deeply personal relationship with our Earth. It's where the stories come from. It's where the answers will come from. I have spent most of my life listening to the land around me, and because of that I draw and write. Love of land will lead you to marvelous things. <3
