your words cast spells

I wanted to release a new print to commemorate one of my favorite times of the year- when the flowers start to bloom and the sleepiness of winter begins to shake. I created this piece with gouache and pastel inspired by one of my spring walks through the California poppies. 

This piece is a continuation of the theme of paths that unfold in my work over and over again. I created Blooming Ballads while thinking about the idea of knowing yourself at every turn. While the paths we travel might fork and meander, we are always met with ourselves and the sureness of what we believe in. When we exist in our own truths the world will unfold around us and the flowers will sing. 

Blooming Ballads is a 12" x 24" print, hand signed and numbered in a limited edition of 75.
