Getting lost in your own world seems so much easier in childhood. Finding something that captures your entire attention is a skill we seem to lose as adults, unless we dedicate time to pursing it. And when we do? It’s incredible how much better—how whole—we can feel.

Painting Size: Vertical 9 × 12 inch oil on paper

Completed: 2024

Materials: Original oil painting on paper with satin varnish, matted in a black frame and ready to hang.

From the Artist

I’m often surprised at how much I learn from my kids. I find myself so busy with expectations and to-do lists while they’re perfectly happy exploring some small thing that’s caught their attention. They let themselves play and be present in the moment in a way I often struggle to do. But when I manage it? Finally? Oh, it’s incredible how much more centered and connected I feel. Able to breathe deep and just be.
