Wild At Heart

The other day we found this temporary structure that was built in the woods beside one of our favorite local parks.  We came back to take a few pictures.  It is a large construction and well built with out the use of nails or any visible lashings.  The whole thing seems to just be stacked and woven out of fallen trees and branches that had been lying about the woods.

I really love that we can have these undeveloped chunks of land with in the city where things can feel a little wild and uncultivated.  I find myself renewed by visiting these kind of wild patches when I go for walks in the neighborhood.  It is as if some wild aspect of my self is affirmed by these places, a place that wants to just remain untamed and natural.

That is a work of art and such a wonderful thing to stumble upon!

BTW, love your paintings. They speak to me!
