Taking it slow

"Taking it Slow" was inspired by the first sculpture I made a few years ago, which marked a turning point in my creative journey. I set a goal to recreate that piece on a larger scale, both to honor where I started and to explore how my approach has evolved over time. The curves in this piece have always captivated me, wrapping around the canvas as if embracing it.

This artwork symbolizes patience and transformation, reflecting how meaningful change doesn’t happen overnight. The gradient blend of pink, blue, and purple echoes the sunsets I watched during the early days of my sculpting journey, a reminder of how every day brought a little more light into my life.

I used a layering technique to build depth and form, working with a palette knife to give the surface a tactile quality. Each layer dried fully before I added the next, a process that took several weeks and allowed the piece to evolve organically. This gradual build-up mirrors the idea that growth and healing take time.

Creating this piece felt like revisiting an old journal, taking me back to a darker time when art was my comfort and my guide. It reminds me of the beauty in taking things slow, of mindfully navigating life’s journey one step at a time. I hope you can feel that sense of patience and introspection, connecting with your journey toward transformation.
