“Flutter”

Artist Statement
I have a sincere devotion to understanding realms of existence we do not experience with our sensory organs.  I think we all feel this existence. It speaks to all of us, in signs and messages, in words and songs, in thoughts and movements, in a different way for every individual.  We all listened as children, spoke to this mystery, and took time to enjoy its presence.  Yet many of us have forgotten how to listen, or just decided to stop speaking back.  

I have decided to listen.  

These paintings are my way of speaking back, of thanking the mystery for the blessings that guide me.  I hope they might help you appreciate blessings that guide you.
