Inspired by a blooming but ter f ly garden, the painting holds the promise of hope.
Priscilla’s Garden is representative of the process of metamorphosis: the unfolding of the
chrysalis state of a caterpillar into a but ter f ly.

In the deep dark of the night, when time seems to stand still and hope feels drained from one’s being;
there is a moment, just before dawn, when the potential for hope is renewed. It is with the flicker of
first light, at the opening of a new day, when Infinite Moments was inspired.
The essence of the painting invites all of one’s being to be rekindled, replenished and restored.

Inspired by the vast night sky on the Nor th Shore of Minnesota, and the spacious waters of Lake
Superior, the painting, entit led Moon Drops, was created over several nights during the full moon
phase of a hot summer ’s July.
Gazing out f rom the sandy shore, i t seemed as if the moon was undulating; i ts light showering on
the deep blue waters; creating a trail of stepping stones seemingly connecting me to the magical
realm of all waters throughout the world: oceans, rivers, lakes, ponds and inlets. Eventually
losing myself in the depth of the intuitive realm, where imagination knows no bounds, the
sprawling waters before me distilled into just one drop. bounds, the sprawling waters before me
distilled into just one drop.
I t is f rom those collective moments of inspiration, that Moon Drops emerged.

Inspired by the colors of the fall season, Soul’s Eyes reflects an embodied state of reflection
and introspection. Much like the green leaves of summer that surrender their innocence to the
seasonal transition of fall, Soul ’s Eyes provides an inner path to follow and a subtle invitation
toward self awareness and change.
