New Collection: Celestial Veils

I kicked off 2025 with an exhilarating burst of creativity! Just before Christmas, I sat down with my art business coach, and we agreed it was time to create a new collection for the upcoming submission deadlines early in the year. True to my nature, I dove in headfirst. In just three weeks, I completed 29 new pieces, adding them to 3 that had been previously finished. Yes, that’s 29 pieces in three weeks! Despite hosting family and navigating a round of illness at home during this time, I’m incredibly proud of what I accomplished. The collection has come together beautifully, and I’m thrilled with how it reflects my growth and creative energy.

“The universe is changing, the universe is expanding. Everything is constantly changing. So when a human being remains unchanged, like a rock, clinging to what he or she is throughout an entire lifetime, it’s a tragedy. A human being has to be fluid, changing, expanding, developing, and at any given moment, has to ask, ‘Why am I suffering? Why does this bother me? Why am I searching for something? Why do I hate such and such thing? Why can’t I forgive and why can’t I liberate myself from this?”

“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” — Eleanor Roosevelt

Celestial Veils is a collection that feels familiar yet also gives a glimpse into another world—a space where light, texture, and color dance in harmony. Inspired by the ethereal beauty of transformation and connection, this series reflects my fascination with the delicate balance between the skies above and the transformative journey we all undergo. Just as the cosmos is in constant flux, so too are we, evolving with each passing moment, finding meaning in the shifting patterns and colors of our lives.

This collection represents not only a creative milestone but also a deeply personal exploration of renewal and possibility. With Celestial Veils, I hope to spark curiosity and wonder, encouraging others to embrace the beauty in transformation and the magic that lies just beyond the surface.

Materials

The layered compositions, crafted from reclaimed materials, invite viewers to journey through veils of light and shadow, uncovering the intricate stories woven into every thread and texture.

When engaging with Celestial Veils, I hope viewers experience a sense of quiet wonder and connection. The layered textures and ethereal colors are meant to draw the eye into a space of introspection, inviting a pause in the midst of life’s constant motion. As they navigate through the delicate veils, I want them to feel as if they’re witnessing the unfolding of something deeply personal and yet universally shared—the continuous journey of change, growth, and renewal.

I aim for the work to evoke a feeling of calmness, as if stepping into a dreamlike realm where the boundaries between the self and the cosmos blur. The subtle interplay of materials, light, and color creates a visual harmony that speaks to the soul’s own cycles of transformation. Through this emotional experience, I hope viewers are reminded of the beauty in the delicate process of change and feel a renewed sense of wonder about the possibilities that lie within their own journey.
