“A Vision Brought to Life”

When I think of the word vision, these three things come to mind

a brain, a flower, and an eye.

These three images come together as a birthing of an idea.

A vision brought to life. 

This piece was created after a period of creative blockage, self-doubts and some repeating of cycles. The vision came to me after meditating in my room one morning. Art has a way of reflecting back to us what sits in the depths of our subconscious. This piece felt like a breakthrough and illustrates exactly that! 

As a flower gets ready to bloom, it must break through the soil, and come out of that prolonged darkness it once knew and embrace the new comings of life. The sun awaits! You are ready.
