“Serenity”
Acrylic on Canvas – June 2016

This was the last painting that I have from my 20’s. There are a lot of feelings that I have going into this new decade in my life. I know that a lot of things will happen and change – as they have in the last 10 years. In thinking about it my immediate response is to start feeling anxiety and wanting to cry. Knowing people that are dear to my heart that I will have to say goodbye to breaks my heart. My fur babies, still not even 3 years of age will be old if they are still with us – devastating. My life time spent in Korea will be a distant memory.. and I’ll likely have new additions. Who knows what will happen?!?!
But with that panic comes the deep realization that somehow – someway things will be okay. Life keeps revolving and joy will come along with the heartache. Seriously though, it was like my emotions were all jumbled and I was wrecked inwardly, but when I let go and just let the paint fly it speaks to me. In this case, it spoke with a beautiful painting that I couldn’t title anything other than Serenity.
