RE: Stinging Nettle Tea - Painting - Finished - Tea Recipe -
The teapot is my favorite, I have issues with depth and dimension, practice helps with the 3D issues. We did a lot of trail riding with horses and extreme hiking, you run the trails. I learned no matter how hot and humid it is wear slacks and a long sleeve shirt...where I grew up nettles are everywhere!
The log jam does not sound like fun but the memory is awesome!
Nettles are so easy to find and a super food. I found a patch here in Oklahoma too!
Stinging nettles are good teachers, in a lot of ways, lol. I'm glad you have found some in Oklahoma, especially now that you have learned the nettles many personalities. : )
All the wild plants I ran into where some kind of medicine plants. In my psychology 101s we had a group of people that studied healing methodologies outside of big pharma. I was invited because of healing my PTSD through vipassana meditation retreats. One lady wrote a paper on the healing qualities of plants as spirit guides. One of the most interesting round table talks I attended. This was back in the late 90s....I think more than the animals were talking to me as a child running wild in the Pacific Northwest woods!
That sounds like a great childhood. And I'm glad that plants have been able to help you.
