(this description written by Futurus)
So, this is Earth Lords. It’s not big (yet), and it’s not famous (again, yet). But if you like nature, and art, and all things living, Earth Lords is the place to be. We (really, me) are focused on art, of all kinds, from poetry to sketching to sculpture, and everything in between. We take anyone with a talent in the arts to share, and a friendly voice to support, and criticize, our work. We want to grow and develop as a community, each member bringing something unique to our gathering. If you don’t have an artistic talent, don’t worry. Each person is at his or her own stage of life, and it’s never too late to learn something new.
You might ask, why is Earth Lords so connected with the arts? Well, for one, I live by the saying, “Earth without art is just ‘Eh’”. That’s true in more ways than one. In terms of the words themselves, if you take the word “art” from the word “Earth”, you DO get “Eh”. But without creativity and beauty, the world would be bland and dull. In other words, it would be nothing special. And art is connected to the earth in very basic and ancient ways. The rock art of our ancestors was created in direct contact with the rock walls of the caves in which they lived, and the paint or carving tools were taken from things found directly in nature, in the earth itself, or growing on it.
Earth Lords (for now) is the nation of creativity and imagination, of art and natural connections. We are the Earth; we are your home.
Earth Lords Motto: "To practice any art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow. So do it."
