This light and bright painting plays with different marks, smudges, and drips that all work together to showcase a rich and varied composition. This piece offers playful encouragement to search for lightheartedness in even the seasons that may feel heavy and austere.

Throwing off the oversimplified notion that each experience or stretch of life is either “good,” “bad,” “hard,” or “easy,” can unlock our potential to welcome the difficulty along with the joy and the fear along with the wisdom. What could be found might just be a blend of radiant boldness, luminous wisdom, and playful adventure.
