A nature photo showing a path leading out of the forest. It is partially paved with irregular flat stone tiles and changes abruptly to dirt and gravel. In the distance it ends at a paved path with a park map stand and large stone markers. A wooden post marks the entry of the forest on the left. A tree stands over a picnic table with several branches curving over the path. A bright and open meadow lies beyond.

When you leave the forest, leave the weight behind.

A nature photo showing a creek carving through a forest from a slightly elevated viewpoint. A fallen log crosses the meandering creek in an X shape. A path is partially visible on the left under the orange glow of the setting sun, obscured by the hill and trees. The water reflects the tree canopy and blue sky. The forest floor itself is dappled brown leaves interrupt by green moss and plant shoots. Not pictured: the bridge over the creek, from which the photo was taken.

A peaceful moment at the bridge.

This is a photograph of a sketchbook with a drawing held up in front of a scene. The sketchbook shows a colorful forest scene with a path retreating into the distance. The sketch is held up such that it matches up with the real world view that was drawn — sort of. The sketch is dated 4-3-26. It is held up by Kyle’s left hand which has purple sparkly painted nails.

day 1189: I found a log to sit on and drew this view of the park earlier today.

I still have so much of this “new” park to explore, and a lot more art to create inspired by it 🌳

Large gnarly tree stand next to an empty park bench. Beyond is a peaceful pond with trees on the other side. The sky is a beautiful blue with wispy white clouds.

Winter afternoon at the pond. The weather was dreadful last week but today it was in the low 60s with sun. It’s hard to believe we will get more winter. @PappyElkinsPark #DalworthingtonGardens #LocalParks #Texas

This is a digital painting of a meadow in the woods under a blue sky with some clouds. The meadow is wide and a bright green, with the darker, greenish blue of the trees in the background. The sky is a bright blue with all types of clouds, some wispy and others fluffy.

day 979: another piece based on a picture I took at a park. I love parks! Recreation in nature, and anyone can just go and enjoy? What’s not to love?!! 🌳🤩

A shallow stream in the woods. Several round concrete pillars stand in the stream, each about two feet in diameter and spaced evenly two or so feet apart. They form a path to cross the stream. On a rock nearby in the stream crouches Greninja, an anthropomorphic frog ninja Pokémon which wears its long tongue as a scarf (gross, I know). This is Shiny Greninja, with dark black skin and a bright red tongue (as opposed to the usual blue + light pink).

Hiked along Holmes Run earlier. All those little hoppy-stepping-stone crossings had me feeling like a dang Naruto
