Hello, beautiful mind!
You are.
Because, you are interested in a rather subtle, beautiful, omnipresent, and yet surprisingly often overlooked aspect of our lives – Nature. And I am so happy that you are here! :)
I am Gyaneshwari Dave. The writer/poet and artist behind Pineconedream.
Day in, day out, no matter what we are after, essentially, in one way or another, aren’t we just longing for Joy, Beauty & Meaning to be present in our lives to call them fulfilled? I believe that when we start paying attention to the natural world, we discover all three of these. In their eternal, purest, and most profound forms.

What I Do
Nature Writings & Poetry
Effortless poise of age-old mountain peaks, joyful enthusiasm of butterflies fluttering carefree in a meadow, prayerful peace of trees, a chorus of birds singing every dawn and dusk – doesn’t everything in nature have its own, special, subtle, and discerning message for us?
I express my interpretations of the beauty, joy, and meaning of life I find in the natural world, explore our relationship with it, and, the issues of conservation – in articles & poems.
“A Word With Wilderness: Poems Inspired By American Nature” is a compilation of 32 of my nature poems, each accompanied by my illustrations. Read reviews & Find out more.


Illustration/Surface Pattern Design
There are always tiny stories happening somewhere in nature…filled with wonder and delight. My illustrations are inspired by them.
I choose to design surface patterns with my art because a surface pattern can tell the viewer these stories perpetually. I also find the process of arranging my artwork as motifs and seeing a pattern emerge slowly, truly meditative.
In the end, I love how having these patterns on everyday objects give them meaning, and make them special.

Wisdom & Wonder From Nature
Enlightened minds have this rare ability to express the most profound, life-changing wisdom in the simplest of words. That is why I love discovering and pondering over these witty quotes, especially, quotes about living mindfully l and the way they can be related to nature.
