Be Still Collection

PAINTINGS AND POEMS TO ENCOURAGE “INNER STILLNESS” AMIDST THE CHAOS OF LIFE.

I have recently felt overwhelmed by a growing list of responsibilities and demands. Some out of my control and others due to my choices. Choices that I know will pay off in the long run and lead to great reward! Trying to start and grow an art business with a newborn in my arms, dealing with the added challenges of living in a fixer upper, working  to maintain my relationships, being involved in church ministries, and dealing with every day household care and logistics has all proven to be a lot to juggle! I enjoy everything I do and I believe there are seasons where the “hustle” is needed, but I was feeling anxious, restless, and discouraged. In response, I felt God whispering to me that even in the middle of all this craziness I could have “inner stillness.” I painted these moody waterscapes to help combat my feelings and to remind me that in every moment I can trust, be present, release my anxiety, let go of fear, stress and overwhelm, just do the next thing, tickle my daughter, and be still and know that He is God through it all.
