Take It Slow
There are moments in life when the body asks for stillness…
even while something inside continues to burn.Between softness and fire.
This painting was born from that space. Painting this woman sleeping with a white wolf reminds me to stay true my wild and sensitive self and also to live according to nature's pace, cycle, seasons...
While painting, I was daydreaming and painting slowly unfolded into something deeper:
a soft white-pink moth, lotus flowers opening,
and a flowing blue dress that moves like water
like emotion, like breath, like life itself.
Take It Slow speaks to those who are learning to soften…
without losing their wild fire. To those who are in a moment of pause, release, or transformation.
To those who are beginning to listen more deeply to their body.
It is an invitation to let go of what no longer nourishes you.
To return to your truest nature not by force, but through gentleness.A love letter to the self.
To your beauty, exactly as you are.
A painting of:
- softness held by strength
- emotional flow and release
- self-love and reconnection to your wild self
- quiet transformation
