To remember our intimate connection to the earth is to heal the symptoms of our disconnection. This is why time in nature becomes one of our greatest medicines. Slowing down, reflecting, being curious, and wondering about the mysteries all around are the antidotes to a fast-paced culture full of stimulation and dead set on domination. Be bored – This is your mind healing. be still – this is your body healing. be sad – this is your heart healing.
May my art serve as a reminder of the beauty of the wild, the joy of co-creating with nature, and the healing power of a curiosity for the unknown. May the photos speak to the love of Earth in your heart and inspire your sense of enchantment and wonder – for every act of caring for one is an act of healing for all.
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious
“The idea of an inherently purposeful universe is far more radical than religious notions of intelligent design, which agree with mechanistic science about matter and cede intelligence to an external, supernatural being. Such a narrative offers no compunctions to limit the despoliation of nature. It asks us to humble ourselves to nothing of this world. To be so humbled, we must see that the soul of nature – its purpose, intelligence, and beingness – comes not from without – but from within. It is an emergent property borne of non-linear complexity. In non-linear systems, small actions can have enormous consequences. The technological fix is based on linear thinking. The alternative is to develop sensitivity to the emergent order and intelligence that wants to unfold, so that we might bow into its service.”

Celebrating 11 Years Together!
Welcome to the 11th edition of my nature art calendar! I am excited to share this year’s collection of my collaborations with the Mysteries of Nature. Thank you for supporting my artistic endeavours and I hope you enjoy this unique creation to hang on your wall. This year’s calendar features a collection of 15 visual treats, in natural suites, to awaken your heart-beats.
- Fifteen, high-resolution photographs of Skye’s top creative collaborations with Earth and Space over from the last 2 years.
- The photos feature both wild and urban parks in Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Australia, and the Grand Canyon
- 13 months of coloured, calendar grids – with holidays, lunar cycles, and eclipses for each month of 2025
- Inspirational thoughts and stories each month, written by Skye, to open your heart and inspire your mind
- Digital photos from both versions of the calendar (Earth and Cosmic to pick from – details below), with an expanded story excerpt from each month’s quote – emailed to your inbox on the 1st of each month
- 10% of proceeds are being donated to the Ancient Forest Alliance working to protect the old growth forests and promote sustainable forestry practices.
You can find the full collection of the past years of Cosmic calendars here at this link (along with my entire archives in the other albums on the flickr page)
There are two versions available to choose from:
- Earth Edition (nature art photos only)
- Cosmic Edition (nature art photos, digitally blended with space photography)
Samples from the same month are shown here to compare each version. The “Earth Edition” is the one on the right and the “Cosmic Edition” is the one below on the left.
There are three reciprocation choices for the calendars, to balance accessibility to you and sustainability for my work:
1. Kick Back – One calendar for $25, or two for $40
2. Around the Corner – $30 – you get one calendar and I gift one to someone who cannot afford it.
3. Gift – we all have times when our money is needed elsewhere and I don’t want a lack of funds to prevent you from enjoying the art. If this is the case for you, let me know and I can send you one from “around the corner”. Last year, 37 people received a gifted calendar thanks to the generosity of others.
*Note – Please add $4 (for one calendar), $5 (for two calendars) for shipping in Canada or $7 for USA shipping.
You can contact me here with this form to request your order, or simply send an etransfer to iamskyedreamer@gmail.com, along with your requested versions, quantities, and your email so I can contact you for follow up.
*If you would like to simply join the monthly mailing list for the digital photos and stories, you may do so by clicking here to fill out the quick contact form.
Just as a tree can only thrive with the support of the forest, I too am only able to share these creative fruits due to the support of my mission by people like you. I thank you for however you feel inspired to reciprocate and keep the gifts flowing. May my art serve as a reminder of the beauty of the wild, the joy of co-creating with nature, and the healing power of a curiosity for the unknown. May the photos speak to the love of Earth in your heart and inspire your sense of enchantment and wonder – for every act of caring for one is an act of healing for all.
