🌊 Two entirely different ecosystems collide.The waves hug the side of the mountain seamlessly, naturally. 🍂

What if the Earth laid in steep degree differences like this?We could think about everything in the natural world meeting.From swamps to desert, rainforest to arctic tundra.
What would they discuss?

What wildlife would evolve to live in both distinctive habitats?

I invite you to ponder your own questions, if the world was just slightly or vastly different.

This original painting sold. Prints will be available soon.

🌀 It could be fun ✨
when you're in a waiting room, traffic jammed, or in a similar situation - imagine colors start changing or exaggerating into shapes.

They say follow what excites you
Uh oh
Monkeying around with this video may have led me closer to another interest

Imagine a book filled with nothing but hand painted landscapes, wildlife, and knowledge of the natural world 🌄

A few people know this book is fully illustrated now, minus adding the text.Can't wait to share it when it's hot off the press!

You know what this means?? Both kids and adults will be influenced to spend time outside, remember why it's so important, and maybe even start to dig deeper into how things work on this beautiful planet.

[Sold] These were made and recorded before I knew what the stones were called, but I had felt them bring lightness to the heart 💚 chrysoprase (still only 90% sure, lmk 😅)

[Others] available in my shop, link in bio: artbyrubystathers.com

P.s. the black lava rock beads on all my jewelry absorb essential oils for hours

P.p.s. happy earth day!!

🫅 For your greatest entertainment, read this in your most olde timey epic fantasy voice:

A crown shall be bestowed upon only those who have gone to great lengths for justice. Who have fought enough battles to replicate the strength of gold whereby it has been forged. Those who continue to fight, even after they fail again and again, because reign of the empire required more of this strength than [wo]man could see 🙈

For equal justice cannot be witnessed, as if a shell cast out from one shore is unable to see while being tossed and tumbled through wave after wave, until it has finally landed on the new shore to look out upon its voyage across the vast ocean horizon in its full magnificent glory. 🤍

...there was a different take on this vision after I painted it last summer, which I will share in due time to go along with "Seeing as a Shell."

“The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing which stands in the way. ... But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself. As a man is, so he sees.”

⛈️ Precipitation that falls at Triple Divide Peak in Glacier National Park will either flow east to the Atlantic ocean, west to the Pacific ocean, or to the Hudson Bay, which could also continue on to the Artic Ocean 🌨️

Also known as the Continental Divide, there's nowhere else that separates these 3 major watersheds in the US.

I'm proud to be flowing like that goose I saw yesterday not even having to paddle foot as the current swiftly carries him/her along the river - to have started and finished these scenes for the book in a half day.
