Please feel free to delete if not allowed, but I figured some fellow compost freaks may relate to finding beauty in the decomposition. In the fall, I've been layer composting a garden bed or two (the tomatoes seem to love it the following summer!) Something about seeing all the glisteny colorful frozen scraps scattered about was totally mesmerizing to me, so I ended up making a large oil painting of the scene. I'm lucky enough to have a little solo show in my town this spring, and I hope that seeing compost immortalized in oil painting could inspire others to get into this way of life!
