This collection is inspired by all the little things, which in reality aren't small at all, that we tend to take for granted all the time. It's so easy to go about our days and never stop to appreciate all the wonder around us. It's not until it's taken away from us that we actually notice how important it is.

Recently I had this revelation about the sun. The sun is always just there, it comes up in the morning, and goes down in the evening, and I never thought much about how it was affecting me, my mood, my health, and basically all life on the planet.

The paintings in this collection are all painted on wooden boards coated with a thick layer of crushed pumice rocks, to create a very unique texture - pumice is a kind of volcanic rock, that is created in eruptions - and a final layer of oil paint is gently painted on top of the pumice in neutral tones and simplistic imagery.

This collection also consists of one hand-embroidered wall hanging and an original linocut print in addition to the 28 paintings.
