Title: Rest Stop

Even the most resilient among us need a moment to breathe. Change asks so much of us, and endurance isn't always about pushing through; sometimes it's about knowing when to pause, to rest, and to remember that you have survived every hard thing before this one. The journey will continue, but for now, rest up. Hummingbirds symbolize endurance and resilience since they are known to migrate great distances despite their small size. This piece serves as a reminder that we must keep growing, enduring so that our journey can one day help others do the same.
 
About the Collection
This collection began with a simple idea: no matter who we are, we all share the same human experiences and emotions. "Under the Same Sky" explores the many ways we experience those connections… the excitement of a new friendship, the quiet comfort of being understood, the distance that stretches relationships, and the joy of finding your way back to one another. These moments are all depicted using scenes of birds mixed with collage.
