Be Still

8” x 10”, Acrylic on Canvas, 2019

I am the quintessential busybody. I am in perpetual motion and I hate sitting still. The thing is, sometimes we need to be still in order to recharge, to be fully present, to truly see the world around us, and to connect with others and ourselves. I painted this as a reminder to give myself permission to stop moving and to simply observe and appreciate the world around me.
