Divine Suspension

After a full night of feeding the baby, rolling over from one boob to the other, the sunlight starts to creep in as we stir awake and get our morning cuddles in; Mommy, Daddy and Baby. Baby's hands pinching my chest while mommy cradles him, daddy moves his hands to grab baby and holds my arm instead, all of our limbs entangled and twisting in an important love language for baby: touch.

Divine Suspension is my first series created postpartum which includes over 20 new paintings. With an emphasis on the process of painting in intervals as my baby is playing or napping while I paint and then calls for me as he needs, the painting is left in suspension and purposefully left in place on the painting. The parental roles of the divine masculine and divine feminine are presented in the works which are also embedded in the process as I invite the interruption to my painting flow as a practice in the divine and unconditional love rather than a hindrance. The Divine Suspension series is essentially an amalgamation about everything I love right now: My family, toys, my jealous cat Cry Baby, butts, boobies and more.

Join us for the opening reception on Friday, August 23rd from 6 - 8pm!
