Years
ago I read a very interesting book about crop circles. This sparked my
curiosity and excitement about a subject both personal and universal
in nature. Meanwhile, people in the UK and Europe, especially, were observing,
enjoying and talking about the phenomenon.
In
the spring of 2010 I saw a wonderful film about them. Towards the end
a woman was asked: “What do you think they are?” She
responded, “I
think they are a gift to humanity.” This went straight to my
heart, and fueled my desire to share them. In addition, I had always
wanted to draw and color the circles. Since I couldn’t find any
books for this artistic exploration, I thought that maybe I could put
one together. I started talking with the scholars, while researching
the vast amount of photographs posted on several websites. By then I
was hooked. After selecting a variety of photos from the UK, art exercises
were designed and successfully tested with children. Then I found myself
chasing more fantastic images from other countries. I thank the photographers
who graciously allowed me to include their work in my book, as well as
the artists and other loving contributors.
Each crop circle appearance
is a
story in itself.
Let your imagination soar.
