Depictions From Nature's Past & Present

Mary Louise Holt

Where Have We Been and Where Are We Going?
An Artist's Statement

I like to create images from nature's past and present. Yet I'm always mindful of its future.

Some of my work depicts the eastern woodland wilderness of the United States before European settlement. I often wonder how many of us really give much thought as to how the natural world looked before the first settlers came and made "improvements" to the land. As I read the old journals of the first settlers and missionaries that came to this wilderness I am amazed and fascinated. They describe the massive trees, cane lands, prairies and the rich diversity of flora and fauna. It must have been and overwhelming and spectacular sight to see.

The wilderness was allowed to grow virtually undisturbed for centuries. This is because the Eastern Woodland Indians believed that the land was a treasure in trust, given to them to use wisely and well so that it could be passed down to future generations.

When I create images from the present state of nature I am hopeful. Despite all of the environmental destruction nature is resilient. I am captivated by the beauty and diversity that remain.

I hope you enjoy viewing my work depicting nature's past and present and appreciate, as I do, the great natural treasures that are now in OUR trust.
