In “Letting Go, Loss, Separation, Disappearance, Death”

 series: ” Flower Bulbs and Tears of Light” (2022)

This series reflects on death, loss, and the fleeting nature of life.

It captures the fragile beauty of life and the quiet alchemy of letting go in the face of loss and mortality

Flower Bulbs and Tears of Light (2022)

A delicate meditation on transformation and transcendence.
In Flower Bulbs and Tears of Light, blue butterflies rise above the earth—symbols of renewal and the soul’s ascent. Below, spheres of matter rest in the soil; above, they dissolve into golden orbs of light, bridging the visible and the invisible. The quiet presence of an archangel watches over this passage between life and death, earth and heaven.

Created with egg tempera and ink on a historic Rijksmuseum sketchbook page, the piece carries both the intimacy of a drawing and the depth of spiritual reflection. Presented in a handcrafted wooden frame, it invites contemplation and calm—an intimate portal between worlds.
