Through the Universe, 24" x 18"

 Acrylic on Wood Panel.

“This painting started peacefully with a gradient background, a soft landing for the brush strokes that followed. Creating this felt easy and freeing, I wanted to keep it soft and playful, full of potential just like the universe. I created it to ease my mind, ease my anxiety, and express my dreams in front of me. I was feeling adrift in my motivation so I surrendered to my process and found myself painting a vision board full of potential, just like the universe.”
