Welcome to For Mother Nature
Working together we can save the remaining natural places on Earth. Here you can find talented artists and artisans supporting environmental organizations. Purchasing handcrafted items from them supports the arts AND the planet.
Artists pledge a portion of their sales to the environmental nonprofit of their choosing. The donation pledge is based on sales to all sources, whether to a ForMotherNature visitor or to another customer. Some artists donate from all their artwork while others donate from a particular series. In this way, artwork becomes imbued with purpose, part of the urgent effort to save wildlife and wild places.
You can be part of this. Take a look at the shops of participating artists, learn about the environmental work they support, and find out why artists are proud to participate. Are you an artist? Join us. You can change the world. Contact Cathy, founder of ForMotherNature.com.

Special Recognition Art Award - September 2020
“The Spirit of Resilience” exhibition in Fall of 2020 sponsored by The Healing Power of ART & ARTISTS
This award is for a work of art, in any medium and style, that most powerfully conveys the importance of protecting and saving wildlife and wild places.
The ForMotherNature.com Special Recognition Award is presented to Kristen Eisenbraun for her painting 'The Tree of Life'.
"Kristen's painting 'The Tree of Life' reminds us that we are a part of nature, not separate from it. We are all in this together. We are resilient. With that understanding we may have a chance to save the wildlife and wild places that remain."
– Award presenter Cathy Berman, Founder of ForMotherNature.com
