This Wooden Ornament is handcrafted by artist Barbara Barratt and her team in her Santa Fe studio. The design, from the Nature Quote series, features a quote by Chief Dan George: "May the stars carry your sadness away, may the flowers fill your heart with beauty, may hope forever wipe away your tears, above all may silence make you strong". The entire Nature Wisdom series offers artistic and inspiring quotes about humanity’s shared home. The artwork celebrates the beauty of the natural world, animals, plants and sky. The inspirational wisdom is deeply connected to the land and our common outdoor havens for rest, exploration, and adventure. The natural world is seen as a teacher and can show us how to live life to the fullest. About our Ornaments: Our handcrafted wooden ornaments are brightly colored.
