MAGENTA, 2020
55”x72”

This painting is so dear to my heart. I created Magenta in 2020, during such a transitional moment in my life. I had been painting for many years, but it was around this time that painting became more than something I loved—it became my career. 🎨

I was home with Yohai, painting, dreaming, and imagining what our life might look like one day. I had always loved hydrangeas, especially magenta ones, and dreamed of someday living in a home surrounded by them. 🌸

Six years later, Magenta hangs in my bedroom, overlooking a garden filled with the very flowers I dreamed about. So many beautiful things have happened since I created this painting that I don’t think I could ever sell it. I fall asleep looking at it and wake up to it every day.

I dream it, I paint it… and somehow, sometimes, I end up living it. ✨

Manifestation is a beautiful and magical thing. 💗🌸
