For the Beauty of the Earth

Art Aesthetics

           I have an eye for beauty and for color. I find beauty in everything and I enjoy looking for the beauty in things. I lose myself when I pick up a paintbrush and create different strokes along the paper. I just simply love art and I love to create.

            I love to feel the sunshine kissing my cheeks on a warm summer day. I spend a lot of my time during the summer outside. I love feeling the heat of the sun, even if it is extremely hot. The warmth of the sunshine fills my soul with peace and comfort and I feel loved.

I find joy in the little things in life. Rainstorms that range from mild to intense that include different rhythms and beats excite me because not only do I find them to be nature’s work of art, but I also find them to be creative musicals.

I like hearing the rumbling thunder and seeing the colorful thunder clouds roll above my head. I feel like the thunder is alive. I see the beauty of the colors in the clouds and I feel like I’m watching some unseen being paint the sky right before my eyes.

I love seeing bright rainbows that peak through the sky and the clouds after the rain clears. If there wasn’t any rain, there would never be any rainbows. This reminds me that without trials and hardships in our lives, we wouldn’t be as appreciative of the joyful and beautiful things in life.

I love feeling the autumn breeze on my face and the leaves crinkling beneath my feet as I reach up to pick a crisp and delicious yellow apple. When I bite into an apple, or when leaves crinkle beneath my feet, I realize the amazing process of nature’s harvest.

When I see the colorful fall leaves of the trees in October, I am reminded of the beauty of the earth and am filled with joy knowing that the holidays are growing near. I love seeing the colors change from bright green to dusty brown and it reminds me that there is a time and season for everything in life.

Whenever a snowflake lightly floats down from the sky on a winter night, I look up and am in awe. I find each delicate and neatly designed snowflake beautiful and when the ground is covered in a white blanket of these snowflakes, I think of how grateful I am to live in such a beautiful world.

            When I wrap up into a warm blanket and sip hot chocolate I am filled with joy and I think of how blessed I am and what a beautiful life I live.  It’s comforting to me and relaxing to be able to sip my favorite warm drink and to cuddle up in a warm blanket, especially when it’s cold outside. I love to just lay back and breathe in the beauty of a moment.

The melodic sounds of the keys being pressed on a piano fills my soul with a joy that I can’t describe. The sound of a piano makes me smile. I can feel the emotion that the pianist is feeling. I’ve always been able to express my emotion through playing the piano and I have always had a love for it. It means a lot to me and not only do I love playing it, but I love listening to people play as well.

When I hear the soft strumming and finger picking of an acoustic guitar the magical sounds of the strings fill my soul with warmth and happiness. As I listen to the sound of the guitar being played I feel like a fire is lit in my heart. Chills run down my arms and I lose myself in the beauty of the music.

This is just an assignment I had to do for art and it made me think... life is beautiful and I should share this with others! Enjoy.

Love,

Kate
