I painted this to show transition, during moments of peace and chaos. She is calm, and in a peace-like state of mind with her eyes closed, though her body is bleeding and transitioning. The broken vases signify her past, as do the white butterflies, lacking colour and only resembling an ambience of what was there.

A bird will sing regardless of the listener, a flower will bloom regardless of it's surroundings, and a caterpillar will always morph into a beautiful butterfly. Be true to your nature, and you will find peace. |
Being 5' X 3.3'
Oil On Canvas Daliea "Our Greatest Fear is our light not our darkness that most frightens us Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, Our presence automatically liberates others." Marianne Williamson The blue butterfly is the centrepiece. It roams the forest, and flutters through the trees shining without permission, or care for recognition. It flies through it's own journey and writes it's own story. It inspires us by shining it's own light, which allows us to shine ours. To see the world with innocent eyes, and have such hope that all will change, that there is beauty in life, and will power to roam: this is what keeps us young. |

" Step out of thought, head towards the sun, keep facing it, and the dark shadows will not cross your path."

The painting on the right represents a butterfly painted yellow with hues of orange surrounding it. It is meant to show the positive power and energy of the sun.
Yellow is the colour of positivity, longevity, inspiration, enlightenment, hope, and sunshine. This is an energizing painting for me. Upon looking at it, I feel enthused, and lost in all of the colours. I feel positive energy ejecting out of the painting.
