Inspired by Mother Mary
In this painting honoring Mary, the Virgin Mother, I draw inspiration from the tradition of Mary’s Garden, which is a practice of planting flowers associated with her life and virtues in front of a Mary statue. Inspired by my own Mary Garden and her profound significance in my life, I included a delicate arrangement of flowers typically found in a devotional garden: roses, lilies, tulips, olive branches, violets, forget-me-nots, petunias, and strawberry vines.
The “I Love You More” Collection
In my “I Love You More” collection, I explore the intricate language of flowers, drawing inspiration from the timeless tradition of using blooms to express emotions. This series is not only a celebration of the beauty found in nature but also a reflection of the boundless depths of love. The title itself is a homage to the playful banter my husband and I share, where we compete lovingly over who holds the greater affection. Just as my husband constantly surprises me with flowers, this collection seeks to capture that enduring sentiment of going above and beyond to express love. Through each petal and stem, I aim to convey the notion that love knows no bounds and should always be abundant, just like the blossoms in a garden.
