 The cup
A moment to reflect A still point A cup of tea Nourishing the soul Being present, open, compassionate Being witness to ones life Being available and grateful for what comes The Buddhist beggar's bowl A delicate egg shell- having released its new life A reminder of the sacred moments The cup sits with the organic flow of life, on or next to the sculptures, which then become landscapes of the psyche, of healing, of our inner being. These pieces are my meditation and an invitation to share the inarticulate reality of lived experience. I would love to hear your thoughts on this idea- or how these pieces speak to you- Please comment below!

The tiny cups on multiple pieces in the show struck me as a theme that tied your pieces together. Your exhibit felt like a miniature gallery tucked among myriad art stores. Reading your poem now adds meaning to what I felt while experiencing your gallery. The poem connects words to what pulled me to stay and drink in the energy living within your work. 6/10/2019 05:12:26 pm
Janice- What a lovely thing to say! I am so glad that it resonated for you! I make work that I need- I think all artists who are being true to themselves do. I definitely need the message that these little cups speak to me- reminding me of openness and gratitude, of compassionate witnessing. They come directly from my heart. I am glad the work nourishes you too. Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
