I derive much inspiration from walking along wooded trails and connecting to the quiet inside myself.The trees in my artwork are an acknowledgment of the nourishment that we receive from the soil and the sun.They are a reminder to stand tall while growing from the inside out and the outside in.A visual lesson in the value of bending with the storms that come and go.Striving to remain open to receiving and releasing new growth.Remembering the inner rings of past joys and challenges that guided me to this day with gratitude.
