It was a blessing and an honor to capture sweet Sarah and her joyful spirit, which remains with us, carried on the wind and waves.

Just so you know, I will be out of the country on a Mary Magdalene pilgrimage until the end of the month, so I cannot ship until the first week of October.

After painting ‘We’re all just walking each other home,” I had a hectic schedule for about a month. Bill kept asking me what I would paint next, and I would shrug, knowing I had time before returning to the studio. I made sure I had some quiet time built into the travel schedule, and, sure enough, during a time of contemplation, it was laid on my heart. “Paint a Mary Magdalene icon. Paint the many faces of her. A series.”

I was resistant at first, but one of my 2024 intentions is, no matter what, to say yes to what Spirit lays on my heart. There is much more to the story of my relationship with MM. I will say she surprised me. She emerged as I painted her. Her face has changed each time I’ve sat with this painting. But art is about the viewer's experience, so I invite you to sit with her, listen, and maybe be surprised as well. 🙏🏼🌬️💞

I've always experienced painting as a flow of energy, rather than a conscious effort. The spiritual experience of creating 'We're all just walking each other home' opened up new aspects of myself. As Kurt Vonnegut so eloquently put it, 'The practice of art is not to make a living, but to make your soul grow.' A resounding YES! 💞🌬️🕊️❤️
