A letter from the Editor


Dear Friends:
This month’s most exciting news is that the design for the Botanical Art & Illustration Certificate Program at the Ringling School of Art and Design is ready to be launched with an introduction class this July. The Certificate program promises to be fabulous and can easily be accomplished in less than two years. I thought you’d like to see how the program is shaping up.
God Bless.
OM

If you don't make mistakes,
you're not working on hard enough problems.
And that's a big mistake.
- F. Wilezek

In the long run men hit only what they aim at.
Therefore, though they should fail immediately,
they had better aim at something high.
- Henry David Thoreau

The thing about creativity is,
people are going to laugh at it.
Get over it.
- Twyla Tharp
