Black Swan

As powerful as your voice is, silence can become your sanctuary.

To lean back, let go, and rest after a long day. I’m sure many can relate to recharging by having some quiet downtime alone. For those of us whose day to day lives include interacting with and being “on” for those around us, it really is a welcome break to step away when we can.

It’s that sigh of relief— to relax our expression, take a sip of water, and rest our eyes for a time. All these small things hold us together during overwhelming and not always easy times. We’re strong, and will continue to handle each day that comes 

This series of paintings involved a pair of swan-inspired wolves and flowers, with short affirmations in relation to voice and quietness; Mute Swan and Black Swan.
