Light up the Whole Sky

The sun never says to the earth,
‘You owe me.’
Look what happens with
a love like that.
It lights up the whole sky.
Hafiz

This painting was inspired by one of my favorite quotes. When we allow our hearts to shine with love is when we are fully alive. I hope on today, of all days, you can enjoy love in all of its forms. Wishing you a beautiful Valentine's Day that lights up the whole sky.

The paint is literally still drying on this one, but it will be on display at my show at Uptown's Dear Clark that opens this Thursday. Hope my Dallas friends can make it out.

"The creative mind plays with the objects it loves."

Carl Jung

I was commissioned to do this piece for a couple who was drawn to my painting, below, after seeing it in Origin Magazine's September/October issue: 

They needed more earthy tones and wanted a large square size to compliment the color scheme in their entryway and this piece was born.  

The title comes loosely from something my yoga teacher emphasizes frequently. It is so beautiful to realize how much the physical practice of the asanas, or poses, translates to life off the mat.
