8x8 mixed media on canvas

“Desert Blooms” is a favorite in my latest collection. This work came out of layering numerous textures and colors and setting the canvas aside when nothing would flow. This piece was literally my discovery into how easily I can get lost in the smells, textures and colors as my brish or palette knife glide across the canvas. Art has carried me through the constant distraction of our busted world. Painting has soothed me when emotions run high yet words would not come. Yes, someday I still want to write that book. Painting is the first thing in years that slows me down and quiets the noise, allowing me to notice that I am enough.
