Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty
The weekend before my birthday has a rhythm I look forward to all year. My wife and I drive out to the orchards near our home in upstate New York, past the loud ones with rides and crowds and toward the quieter places that simply grow apples. We walk slowly, breathing in the cool air, choosing fruit with our hands instead of our phones, already talking about what we will bake and who we might share it with. It is an easy pleasure, familiar and grounding, a reminder that some of the best moments come from simple choices made together.
Back home the apples turn into pies, cakes, and small gifts wrapped in foil and passed across kitchen counters. The house smells better, the days feel fuller, and for a little while everything slows down enough to enjoy what is right in front of us.
In a world that asks so much, what would it feel like to keep something this honest and this good close at hand?
This painting would look best in a space that is red, yellow, orange, blue, purple, black, white, grey, beige, or wood
