Melody Lea Lamb: Making Art Speak For Nature - Dec 20,2010
Do you love fairy tales, Disney movies and books about horses or other animals? Have you ever come across a piece of artwork that took you back into time to a favorite book that you read as a child? As a Master Gardener, Bee Keeper, animal lover and avid reader, I am always intrigued by art work which captures a moment in time in an animal’s existence or perhaps something from nature. Whether the scene is from a fairy tale, a living room couch or something out in the wild, nature has a calming effect, touching your heart and soul. Quite often I have observed artists at work at places like the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Central Park and even on the streets of Paris. It was amazing to watch the creativity flow magically onto paper. Melody Lea Lamb is an artist and illustrator who paints miniatures (ACEOs) of woodland animals & fantasy beings like mermaids and fairies. She is also a successful children’s book illustrator. Her attention to detail makes you feel as though you are really part of the story. The animals that she creates could be your own pet, just waiting for you to rub its fur and snuggle with it on the couch.

Choice Organic Teas: A Nose For Perfection, Innovation and Excellence!
Camellia sinensis is the botanical name for what is commonly referred to as tea. Not all teas are the same. There are a myriad of teas available ranging from: black teas, green teas, white teas, herbal teas, fruit teas, blended teas, etc. Let us not forget Rooibos Teas, Aspalathus linearis, commonly referred to as red teas which are from South Africa, also referred to as rooibos bush or “red bush” teas. Did you know that tea is one of two beverages that can be equated to wine? Most people have no idea just how much time, energy and effort goes into the cup of tea that is randomly sipped at diners, restaurants and cafes alike. The altitude, soil conditions, and climate directly impact each crop and can drastically affect the quality of the tea harvested. For connoisseurs, the way in which tea is harvested, dried, and processed will also affect each cup and therefore special attention must be given throughout the entire process. In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, Eric Ring, tea expert, who is responsible for the production and purchasing of tea for Choice Organic Teas, will be my guest to talk about tea selection, harvesting, the importance of Fair Trade and Non-GMO certification and how consumers can learn how to select a good cup of tea! Stay tuned!
