Inquire for Purchase.
The Becoming series speaks to a person's journey through time. Flowers dance across the paper, emerging from the dark background, which symbolizes our souls as we shine in the darkness and become more beautiful and wise over the course of our lifetime.
Each painting captures in one glance what could be many moments of a life-time lived. The flowers scatter and become whole, in a cyclical deconstruction, representing the formation that occurs with each new year.
Vibrant hues emerge in both the background and foreground, illustrating how memories can vary in prominence. Some aspects of our past may fade into darkness, while others remain bright and foundational, shaping who we are and who we are becoming.
The work is heavily inspired by my own faith testimony and most recently how motherhood has pressed and shaped me into the woman and mother I didn't know I could become.
