Wisdom from the Wood Cards are prints from Evelyn Dean's two lines of images. One line is wood burned and sometimes painted live edge wood panels. They are whimsical and earth based. The other newer line is  from watercolor/acrylic on paper, and it is less whimsical, a bit more shamanic, into the inner workings of nature and the plant world. These images utilize the natural world as well as fantasy to serve as a blueprint towards healing. They are 5 by 7 inches, blank inside. On the back of card is a usually a quote to help delve deeper into the meaning of the image. They are printed on recycled paper.
