Sacred Art Of Simply Being

This art is all work that has allowed me to deepen into finding solitude and contemplation to heal and manage complex trauma and health conditions

Repose

Repose is one of my 'Solitude & Stillness' collection art works.

It was painted in hues of blue acrylic and the figure curled up in quiet slumber painted with pastel.

This is to me, the surrender or art of simply being in peaceful rest.

as I was creating this piece, I was thinking how in this modern world we rarely can fully stop to truly rest in peace.

There is so much beauty in simply being. In curling up, letting go and listening to the voice that can only be heard in silence.

My hope is that Repose whispers the same invitation to you - to rest, to breathe and to find the sacred in stillness of being as we are.

Breathing In, speaks with a tenderness of choosing simply to sit with the day as it is.

The sun hangs low, the water breathes steady and the book waits without urgency.

When we allow ourselves to find that sacred art of being, we know that:

We belong here.

Not for what we produce.

Not for what we fix or overcome,

But for the holiness of breath with this gentle exchange between body and sky.

To be unhurried.

To b e held by creation.

To be fully here.

Sometimes the greatest act of faithy is to stop striving and let our souls remember that being is enough.
