Something Worth Wanting

Our friend Nick came over to lead a kid’s natural face-painting workshop. Rocks were ferried from the stream, pulverized by mortar and pestle, and mixed with water and a bit of honey as a binder. Hilarity and stickiness ensued.

Nick has a book coming out soon, which I’m sure you can pre-order from your local, independent book seller. The man’s skills and artistry are something to behold, so I’m guessing the book’s gonna be equally amazing.

If you need more convincing, you can find some examples of his work here.

Here is what I want: I want people to feel the earth calling, and to see the beauty and wisdom of this home we all share. I want the love for the life that flows in and around us to be catalyst of awareness and transformation. I want people to be inspired to take action in order to protect the forgotten places, where silence has a way of speaking with the voices of our ancestors. – from Nick’s Etsy page

That sounds like something worth wanting.
