Rachel
Rachel is the artist behind Rachel's Garden, a regular post on Notes from Juniper Hill. As adults, who often lead complex, busy and stressful lives, it's far too easy to lose sight of those early encounters with nature that first captured our imaginations as children. Occasionally, it's good to step back and take a fresh look at things. And there's no better perspective than to re-examine nature through the eyes of a child. Rachel's wonderful drawings remind us of exactly why we were so attracted to the wonders of this beautiful world in the first place.
