From the rear of a church building in Cades Cove, the February trees are bare with the hush of winter, yet the century old daffodils arise with spring’s certainty. There is the feeling of hopeful solemnity and peace within.

Surround yourself with people who are good for you, your mental health, your well being, your future. Find peace within yourself and exhale the stress.

Inner peace begins within.

Photographer Chris and painter Robin Rohwer each week share a painting or photograph that captured their interest in hopes that it will also capture yours. They have a small studio and gallery in the Phoenix Building at 418 South Gay Street where you can stop and see their work.
