Reviews
"While I walk away from this book with some [ideas for] plants I'd like to find room for (and a new appreciation of the role of color in my garden), the real lessons of the book are in the insights gleaned--and so generously shared with us--from blending a daily painting practice with a lifelong love of plants. Edwards's poignant wisdom leaves me feeling grounded, grateful, and in really good company, whether with her words or with the living things right outside my door."-- Johanna Silver , gardener and author, Color In and Out of the Garden is a rich visual feast for gardeners and artists alike. Lorene Edwards Forkner brings horticultural wisdom to the daily, restorative practice of painting. With a few tubes of paint and a bit of time and attention, she immerses herself in the wonder that can be found in her own backyard. What began as a hundred-day project in the aftermath of a devastating loss has become a personal journey, sustained over many years. With this gem of a book, we are all invited to take that journey with her., "From the evocative title of this heavenly missive, you might think you need to be a gardener or a painter to harvest the full richness of its many gifts, but you do not. You need only be human--as worried and full of wonder, as pained and patient (or impatient), peculiar and particular as all of us. This collection of careful color studies of botanical (flowers, leaves, seeds, stems) and botanically adjacent (think time worn stones, beach bleached shells) treasures is offered out to us by the knowing hands of a gardener, the refined eye of an artist, the time-tested taste of a cook, and the heart of a compassionate mother. On one level it is an encouragement to practice being present to practice paying attention and taking good care in and of the natural world, to practice really seeing; but on its highest level, it is a much needed (longed for?) reminder born of both joy and deep grief to live your own days (and thus life) in full color, in and out of the garden. A plea to savor and cherish every last living vibrant cell of it in the process: the extraordinary, the quotidian, the steadfast constants, and the heartbreakingly fleeting. A sometimes funny, sometimes sobering prayer to notice and celebrate all the variations and permutations of green (for survival), red (for ripeness), pink (for extravagance), yellow (for luminosity), orange (for energy) and brown--the foundation of all living things--in all their colorful diversity. As Lorene might say, "Yes, please." See for yourself. You will never see your garden, food, art, sky, ground (life) quite the same again.", "Color In and Out of the Garden pays homage to plants and processes, to seeing and believing in small acts of creativity as a means connecting to ourselves and the natural world. A gem of a book." -- Christin Geall , author of Cultivated: The Elements of Floral Style, "Lorene Edwards Forkner's Color In and Out of the Garden is a gentle call to attention, 'looking in and looking out.' Open it anywhere to find yourself transported to the lush offerings of a garden, to 'seeing' color you hadn't noticed, and the poetry, philosophy, and natural history of plants: revelations with life lessons that will expand your view."-- Sally Schneider , creator of Improvised Life, " Color In and Out of the Garden so honestly taps into our visceral yearning to experience nature. Lorene Edwards Forkner's watercolor studies give the gift of sight and insight, inspiring any of us to make a personal practice of observing the palettes of our environment--during any season and at any place on this planet." -- Debra Prinzing , Founder/Creative Director, Slow Flowers Society, " Color In and Out of the Garden is a rich visual feast for gardeners and artists alike.
