Butterfly Series
This has been an exciting season for me of coming out of my shell as an artist. I imagined myself emerging out of this beautiful chrysalis of my home and bringing color and beauty to the world. I began to delve into studying butterflies and painting them.
These works are about transformation, not into becoming a new thing, but about becoming more of who God destined to be. Just like the caterpillar who becomes the creature he has been preparing his whole life to be; A caterpillar learns to fly because he was born to fly. I believe we are all born to do great things, and our seasons of life are all different, so we are in different stages. The caterpillar stage and the chrysalis stage are all their own kind of beautiful. God has made miracles happen around every corner, and one place we see that is in the beautiful and humble butterfly. The video on the right is a virtual tour of this show where I explain each piece and walk you through the gallery! |
I have also created necklace pendents that are Chrysalis in various stages of development. These one of a kind jewelry pieces remind me that Isolation can be a time of transformation too!
