One Breath Attunes the Spheres

Much like the natural life cycle of the world, inspiration often follows a similar evolution. What begins as a spark of life then fades to a steady glow that must be carried and nourished along the journey to a complete piece. If left to fend for itself, the muse will slowly slip beneath the surface of your subconscious and out of reach. The artist knows this, and while we fight to keep the spark glowing, should life take it's course, we know we can always turn towards nature to help us in the search for our next flame.

This piece draws upon a universal thread in
folklore and ancient cultures: the personification
of nature. Mythological figures throughout
time and across the world have represented the
power of nature as Mother Earth. This work is
an allegory for nature as a source of inspiration,
and its impact on art and folklore. The title comes from a line in prominent American naturalist Henry David Thorough's poem "Inspiration".
