aftermath
Set within an enchanted woodland reminiscent of medieval illuminated manuscripts, this visual poem follows the journey of a young duck learning resilience beneath the watchful presence of wolves. Twining branches, stained-glass windows, mushrooms, wildflowers, and a protective wing transform the forest into both sanctuary and trial, illustrating how courage is often born from vulnerability rather than certainty.
doorway
Sometimes healing isn’t a dramatic escape—it begins with stepping through a broken doorway. Looking Out of a Busted Doorway reflects on releasing yesterday, embracing transformation, and recognizing that, like smoke, the pieces of us never truly disappear. The accompanying mixed-media collage layers vintage textures, symbolic puzzles, and luminous landscapes into a visual meditation on resilience and renewal.
can’t let the day get you down
In just a few words, Can’t Let the Day Get You Down captures the quiet determination to keep moving forward. Paired with a vintage medical-inspired collage, the poem reflects on resilience, healing, and finding strength one day at a time.
smoke
Smoke Sticks Still drifts through a symbolic winter landscape where smoke curls like vines, lotus blossoms glow beneath moonlight, kittens leave delicate tracks through fresh snow, and golden flowers bloom despite their imperfections. Flowing botanical forms and luminous jewel tones transform the poem into a meditation on stillness, resilience, and the gentle awakening of a new day.
inert
Life is equal parts chaos and calm. Little Bit of Chaos explores the delicate balance between structure and spontaneity, reminding us that our light follows us, even through seasons of uncertainty and transformation.
venture on
Sometimes the path forward isn’t smooth, but every step teaches us something. Venture On is a meditation on resilience, learning from hardship, and remembering to pause long enough to appreciate life’s simple comforts.
