Expressions of Love in Art and Nature







I've done a couple in this series and thought I'd add some more. Nothing makes me smile more than seeing this little romantic prods around town. So to all the random artists that decide to share the love, thank you!



“Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.” — A Man Without a Country, Kurt Vonnegut

I know the roo is an odd choice but there's something about a mother carrying her child that screams love. Human or otherwise.

It is these little treasures that make me love life!

  1. I don't stop and smell the roses enough Lydia. Literally and metaphorically. I've lived opposite a lovely view for nearly 4yrs and while I appreciate it I don't know if I am as grateful as I should be for what's on my doorstep.

  5. The kangaroo and joey are a great sign of love. And the sign in the first photo is an arty idea.

  15. We were house sitting around the UK for the past half a year. Interestingly most of the house owners like to put quaint 'signs' of love in lots of different ways all over the rooms.

  17. I really like all this expression of love(specially the roos). I have found heart shaped rocks, leaves and even twigs.
