I wanted to release a new print to commemorate one of my favorite times of the year- when the flowers start to bloom and the sleepiness of winter begins to shake. I created this piece with gouache and pastel inspired by one of my spring walks through the California poppies. 
This piece is a continuation of the theme of paths that unfold in my work over and over again. I created Blooming Ballads while thinking about the idea of knowing yourself at every turn. While the paths we travel might fork and meander, we are always met with ourselves and the sureness of what we believe in. When we exist in our own truths the world will unfold around us and the flowers will sing. 
Blooming Ballads is a 12" x 24" print, hand signed and numbered in a limited edition of 75.

The relationships we search for
and the ones that search us out.
The relationships we thought could never be
and the ones that we could never live without.
They’re all on their way to becoming something else,
never static, always moving.
But try not to dwell on the inevitable changes
because the universe will be there
to take the changing faces
and offer rainbows to the empty spaces.
empty spaces met with rainbows.

I spent ten years trying to overcome The Plateau.
I ate when I could and let go of the weight that was holding onto me.
I mapped the light passing in each moment
hoping it would reveal doors to move through it. 
I collected relics buried in the rocks
And with them I saw time unfolding.
I saw myself here many lives ago.
I saw how hard it all seemed then.
I remembered what it felt like for beginners.
And how simple it all seems now.
I walked with mindfulness, I found it easier than before. 
I learned to make peace with this place 
And I forgave it 
For the things I haven’t forgiven it for
In forever. 
I tried to do the same with myself
And the people I owed this forgiveness to. 
I returned what I took from the Plateau 
For I knew it was no longer mine to have. 
Then I looked up.
The Plateau, no longer standing as a challenge
But as a proud monument
For what I have already overcome.
And then I walked away,
Something I haven’t been able to do
In forever.
The Plateau was originally released 5 years ago. I'll be releasing an AP edition of 13 prints of the Plateau on Tuesday, January 16th at 11AM pacific time. Each print comes with a marbled poem/certificate of authenticity and a custom handheld blacklight.
