“This collection is inspired by the woods. The gentle ferns that emerge amongst the shadows touched by fragments of light. A variety of styles and textures emerged as I worked amongst the gaps of motherhood. Each brush stroke invokes peace, hope, and possibility. ”

Rest in the Beauty

$1,975.00

This new peony inspired piece guided me to a place of feeling held. If you are gripped in anxiety, fear, or self loathing as I sometimes am....these extraordinary, beyond life size blossoms can help you find a new place of refuge.

They aren't perfect. Look closely and find the flaws. And yet see the whole and feel the impact and wow-factor.

This piece could catch me in any free fall of the racing mind or aching heart. I love the way I can get lost in the beauty and variety of the petals.

In the final week with this piece in my studio, I listened to a retreat with Pema Chodron (check your library--there are tons of retreats with her available there). She spoke of the practice of being here, now without effort. Bringing a natural awareness to what is unfolding. Not grasping any idea (of yourself or another) too tightly.

So as I rest in the beauty of this piece I find that my heart resonates with the blossoms--that we are not perfect and that it is amazing to be here, flawed and moving, changing, becoming and opening each day.
