"Night Garden" is the second and largest piece in the Bloom Collection. For this piece I wanted to explore my traditional style of mandala painting, while incorporating some more life-like and detailed floral designs that included leaves and foliage. This piece took approximately 80 hours to complete.

I wanted to paint a piece that was reminiscent of the night time scenes in Avatar; a dark forest lit up by glowing plant life (a visual representation of which can be seen here).

This piece was inspired for me, by the growth that happens in periods of rest and darkness. So often we think about growth as being something that we do. Action-oriented and tangible.⁣ In reality, I think growth is just as often something that is simply 𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘥 for. A gentle shifting of who we are as we navigate and learn through the many journeys life takes us on.⁣ I’ve found my greatest growth at times of rest. Times when life forced me to stop moving so I could actually be with all the internal changes that were trying to take place.⁣
