2024
A painting dedicated to the wide open expanse of time stretching out before me like a magic carpet.
I battled cancer in 2024. I wept and wept. I believed this world didn’t want me anymore, that all my light meant nothing. I asked over and over for some kind of meaning in what was happening to me. How could it just mean nothing? So much suffering couldn’t really be void of meaning. A tiny hidden part of me believed that I would find it. It would be there in the end. It would reveal itself to me.
And now here I am. On the other side of the darkest season. Somehow here. Like Nike, the winged goddess. And I feel it. It is there. It is heaven. In every little thing. In the cloud and wave and butterfly and sparrow. In my children. In my husband. In my own reflection. It has been revealed to me, the heaven in all things. And I smile. I smile and smile and hear music even when there is none.
And then I made this painting.
This is the Season of Heaven.
