"The temporary natural art installations of a professional landscape artist described in his own words with ""Invitations to Play"" which invite the reader to create their own natural art.

Temporary natural arrangements have captivated people across the world. Readers will learn how a professional artist creates these outdoor installations and get inspired to create their own with a detailed look at the outdoor world of artist James Brunt. Brunt makes art that works with the environment while not changing it or having a permanent impact on the world in which he creates. Whether on a beach or in the woods, playing and creating can lead to a sense of calm and connection to nature.

With a collection of new and previously unseen works, Brunt combines imagery and words to share how harnessing the power of nature helps us stay connected and grounded in an increasingly fast-paced world. His ""Invitations to Play"" ask readers to take some time out, go outside, immerse yourself in natural surroundings, and explore their own creative interactions, using natural materials like stones, leaves, wood, and more in the environment in which they're found.

Reviews for Land Art: Creating Artworks in and with the Landscape

“His affinity with nature, its patterns, textures, colors, and seasons, speak volumes in the work he creates . . . a must-have page turner, filled with timeless, beautiful inspirations that will resonate with anyone interested in the true art of nature and what it is to be human. Go buy it!” -- James Craig Page, director, European Stone Stacking Championships “Brunt responds directly to his given location . . . he is one of the most accomplished environmental assemblage artists living today.” -- Mark Antony Haden Ford, land artist, Weaver from Two Circles Design “James has been inspiring students at the International School of Düsseldorf for many years. We use his work in our second grade ‘Art is in Nature’ unit to explore the ways nature inspires artists to create, and also to spark ideas when students are creating artworks of their own.” -- Simon Waterworth, ES outdoor learning teacher; coordinator, Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award “He becomes one with nature and using mere twigs and rocks and cocklebur seeds . . . James has created a multitude of beautiful, intricate, complex, awe inspiring and completely natural installations.” -- Binky La Faye, festival director, Llano Earth Art Festival, Texas “James doesn’t allow his work to become complicated and he doesn’t burden himself with tools and equipment and fancy techniques . . . He instills a sense of wonder as if every leaf and twig has magical powers.” -- Sean Corcoran, environmental artist; artistic director, The Art Hand, Waterford, Ireland
