Don’t Drop the Baby / 3 A.M. Dream world

Don’t Drop the Baby / 3 A.M. Dream world, 12x9", Gouache graphite and collage, 2019
My work couples the struggles of modern day life with our deep detachment from the natural world.  Our relationship to Earth is fragmented, and our hearts ache for her.  As a child, I explored the woods and beach behind my home daily, embracing the divine connection to the universe, my humanity, and to the spirituality that was found there - in communion with the plants and animals.  Now, I crave the stillness of nature and the night sky, to silence the overwhelming quality of life.  Through my art, I aim to convey a celebration of all things in the universe, contrasted with the challenges of current existence, femininity, motherhood, and mental wellness.
