A Letter
Dear Reader,
I began my flower photography journey while healing from long history of sexual abuse. I was drawn to flowers because of their beauty and tender softness. It was something I needed in my life as I allowed my own self to soften in a dark world. While spending time with the floral beauties, I began to deeper reconnect with my body, my soul and my physical surroundings.
This chapter helped me become more receptive to Christ, who I was running away from while being caught amidst all the pain and the demons. As my heart began to soften and the layers of ice began to melt, I finally was able to be more receptive to my calling. I came back to Him and began to experience an even deeper healing.
Then I began to build this art business where I wished to pour the grace, wisdom and beauty that I was collecting and share it with the world. I began to see how important beauty, joy and grace is in battling the demons all around us. How these elements help us become stronger and therefor empower us.
Through this process I also learned that I was not a broken woman, but a child of God living in a fallen world. To carry on we need balance, we need to embrace our nature and accept reality. And then within that acceptance we need to find the tools to battle the demons all around us while fulfilling our calling.
The collection of prints and cards is intended to share the wisdom I gained during my own healing journey, while also providing simple tools to add beauty and grace into your life through God’s creation in a physical and visual manner.
Whether you find it in the many floral paths, in the silent but steady mountain views or even in the depth of the ocean. Wonders await, ready to add balance, light and grace within moments of time that remain constant. Especially dark times and chapters.
And most importantly remember that through God you can turn even the ugliest of chapter into beauty.
“What is impossible through man is possible through God”
Luke 18:27
