Artist Statement

I am a tree, just being me. Blue flowers are my power, turning my pain and shame into healing and feeling. In nature I want for nothing. I am in community with the world and I am nurtured by sunshine, trees and everything green. I called this piece Beautiful Simplicity because I am enough. I accept myself and seek community with those who accept me.
