From the Artist

After a long, dark winter, we finally received a break in the rain and I was able to take my boys out hiking for the first time in weeks. It was still cold, but the woods were full of filtered light, shining through branches and falling on the paths. There’s something amazing about being outside after being cooped up, about a break in the weather. We all felt lighter and more ourselves for the first time in ages. An incredible gift indeed.
