I wish i was a woman, that in a world full of issues , my main priorities are shoes , dresses, leaves, like this one, that chose to be a leaf painter for a living . I imagine theres a man behind that must pay all the bills and give her money every month like this she can watch leaves while people go do real work for society .

You wouldn’t last one day as a woman with an ego as fragile as yours, feeling so threatened that you are compelled to make a sexist comment, incidentally completely missing the point of this presentation. Apparently this simple “leaf painter’s” contribution to nature conservation work is too complex for you.

Atleast read before making a judgment. She has two books of her own, and makes illustrations for other books. She has also recieved national geographic young explorer’s grant. So I guess she is doing well on her own.
And secondly, this is completely unrelated to the message she is trying to deliver. Is it necessary to judge and make comments, rather than just try to understand and appreciate what she is conveying?

When I was in college in Colorado,had this fellow from New York city,had never been in a forest,or seen trees other than Central Park,which isn’t a forest.
To be there to see his emotions when I took him to the mountain forests was really cool,it was like a completely new world to him.
The wonderment in his eyes,he almost teared up in joy,saying to me,I just never knew,thank you brother,for bringing me here….
Take your friends,your family,take children to the forests.
Let them see the life surrounding that without them we truly have no “soul”.
The first time you ever go into a forest,you’ll get it,you’ll smell it,you’ll taste it in the air….

I can identify trees. I can’t identify cars they all look the same these days. 1970s cars I can tell apart…I can get a lift in someone’s car get out walk two paces away and not remember what the car looks like. I know oretty much every plant in my environment except I have trouble with the umbelliferous ones that look alike…like wild carrot versus ladies lace. But I know all the plants and what ailments they’re good for what nutrients are in them whether they make good dyes or can make cheese whether they dry with colour or fade I know the leaves flowers and seeds but not a lot about the roots. I teach my kids about the plants and trees around them. I know what they like and don’t like what their attributes are etc. It seems odd to me that people would not be interested to know all the amazing things you can do with different plants. Some can light a fire some can absorb lots of water some can be made into baskets or get rid of insects ..so many uses and interesting oersonalities they have.
