This work Lush Restraint no.14 is lively life captured still. The dark blues, greys, greens and pinks flow upward off the canvas. Hinting at hope and movement. Scribbles, splashes, and sprinkles of pigment making beautiful layers on the natural cotton canvas.

This work let me know again that the darks are so rich and needed. Contrasts in life and art needed to be appreciative and see differences. What good is the summer without the winter, the light without the dark. This wonderful and wild life has us flowing through it. Lush Restraint no.14 has us knowing there is beauty in the flow, knowing so much is out of our hands, there is beauty in the letting go.
