The New Life Collection, Available September 6th-10th
About the Collection
I am so excited for the release of The New Life Collection, an artistic exploration of joy and grief. This collection is full of “firsts” for me. Each piece stretched me creatively in terms of color and shape. I have never utilized such a bright color palette, nor explored floral shapes in this way.
Each painting is a floral study inspired by the florals from my grandfather’s visitation and those given to us on the day of our son’s birth, which happened to be the very same day. Such a beautiful depiction of the relationship of joy and grief. A tension I am no stranger to and I assume you may be acquainted with it as well. I am so grateful to be in a season where I can make room for both and also celebrate the beauty of both. Our grief honors what we have lost while our joy looks for what we have and hopes for what is possible. These florals are a beautiful representation of that experience and I am so grateful to share that with you.
My grandad was incredibly supportive of my artistic endeavors and an art collector himself. His own collection is made up of bold artistic pieces. I know he would just love this bold color palette!
Fun Fact: He made sure to be the first one to purchase my work from a gallery, such a sweet and meaningful moment for me (see image below).
Each piece from the New Life Collection framed in a white or gold frame and a white mat, which highlights and balances the composition and color pallet for each painting to adorn your space without overpowering it.
So what is a Drip Release?
A drip release is a different way to release a collection than I ever have before. The collection is a small batch series of five framed abstract floral paper pieces. Starting Monday September 6th, I will be releasing one piece a day. These paintings are so near and dear to my heart that I want you to get to know each one on it’s own a part from the greater collection. This style of release gives each work nuanced attention and focus. I am so excited for you to meet each painting and see how you connect with these pieces.
