Viewing the Earth from space, we will find out our home that we think to be safe is actually surrounded by unpredictable weather. We should adjust our attitudes and treat the Earth respectfully!

Thank you Martha! I love the first word-challenge of Viewpoints 9 cycle 4. Home can conjure up so many different images and ideas, it was difficult to settle on just one. I realized that Home is a place where I feel welcome. That might be my home here in Cheshire, CT or my Mom's in NY or at any of my siblings' homes in the USA.

It is exciting to start a new round of challenges and initially I was apprehensive as to what the 'word' might be for our first challenge. However when Martha gave us 'home' , my fears melted away and I was instantly taken by the possibilities of this word.

Only leave our side, he will make a beautiful home with a pretty wife. I want to pray they make the happiness in a new home. Next week is big holiday “Chusok” in Korea. It is like thanksgiving day and 15th of the 8th lunar month. Many people visit their hometown and have a great time with all the famliy.
The English language has an estimated 1 million words, Chinese, around 370,000, and South Korea as many as 500,000. And we will each pick one for each of the next 9 challenges in Viewpoints 9's fourth cycle: Word! Starting today, with our first challenge, V9 artists will respond to the Word challenge and create a piece 18" W x 36" L over the next 8 weeks. As in the past, weekly updates will be posted by individual artists throughout the challenge, culminating in our virtual gallery.

I kept returning to the word "home" because of my own p
