We recently connected with Patricia Castle and have shared our conversation below.

Patricia , appreciate you joining us today. Going back to the beginning – how did you come up with the idea in the first place?

In a previous interview I talked about me as a child being able to see things in tree’s the sky…etc. like faces, things I can’t explain and how it is a natural thing for me. As a child when i realized I could see these things I thought everyone could see them too! Then when I asked my friends they said “No we don’t see it” I was shocked then they made fun of me and I told myself I was going to figure out a way to show the world what I see when I’m outside in Nature lol…at the time though I didn’t know it would be when I became an adult, I understand now that the idea came to me when it was suppose to I’ve always enjoyed taking pictures of my friends and I growing up back then there was no smart phones. My mother would go to the store and get me those little disposable cameras I loved those I was in middle school I believe when the disposable came out. That’s when the idea really came to mind, but with lack of technology then I still didn’t know how, how I was going to show the world…so I came to the conclusion and had this inner knowing it just wasn’t time yet. Fast forward to 2016 I’m in my 30s going through a really tough time in my life and Boom the idea comes back except this time I know how and what to do. I knew this endeavor would succeed because I’m doing Gods work I have always been spiritual even at my youngest and I’ve always felt the guiding of god and spirit in my life and I listened as I like to call it a co-creation and I’m the vessel a messenger in this great! Duo loving every moment of it because this is who I am. This is my calling whether it succeeds or not big or small it was created to make a difference in this world.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers

Well…in 2016 I started posting my pictures online on Facebook and Instagram in which I thought this is the best way for people to see my creativity. Starting off I just jumped right in I didn’t have a plan I was just sharing what I love to do and that was capturing those moments in Nature not everyone see’s and that’s how my work or brand eventually developed the name The Art Of Nature I named it that because it truly is The Art Of Nature I just simply capture the moment when I see it and that’s what my brand/creative work provides magical moments in Nature seeing what the eyes don’t it has depths to it you know, its otherworldly, spiritual, other Dimensional, whimsical, etc. I set out on this journey to find my true self and to inspire as many people as I can along the way. I hope it is, most importantly I want my fans or followers to take from it love and light knowing that a higher power exists and that Nature is important all Nature is important its God’s work. What sets me apart from others is my ability to see what alot of eyes don’t. I want potential followers/fans to know there’s nothing wrong with being different be who you are love who you are and don’t change who you are and that you are who god created you to be Never Dim your light Always shine bright. I’m 38 years old with 3 beautiful sons I love and adore being a single-parent it’s not easy, my kids is my motivation and I want them to lead their lives with love and light I want them to be proud of who they are and who I am as they’re mother and they can always look back and see what they’re Mother/I Patricia created with love and passion to inspire them and motivate them to lead their lives with positivity and integrity.

What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?

For me it’s what I love to do so it’s always rewarding, as an Artist / creator it’s for sure rewarding when others start to notice your work and you see your audience start to grow and they compliment the work you do. It’s not easy to put yourself and your work out there for people to see no matter what type of artist you are and what artistry you bring to the table it’s about belief believing in you, the journey is rewarding.

How’d you build such a strong reputation within your market?

Hands down never giving up and daringly being who I’m meant to be in this world.
