Sometimes lessons are gentle reminders and sometimes we are crushed completely only to rebuild ourselves stronger than ever. The Humble Sprout Collection is a memento of our challenges and the strength to grow. Reach out with and open mind. Be gracious. Grow intentionally.
Nature can show us how.
Spring Breath
Inhale the morning dew
the air has a sweetness
Prairie Smoke
The morning sun blazes across the grass
and we rise to meet it.
Subtle Sprout
Each leaf like little hands
reaching to the sky.
Against the Precipice
Push with all your might,
defiant to the last.
Sustain
Adventure is about
Leaving your comfort behind.
An ecosystem requires some level of symbiosis to thrive. Plants and animals and geological features are all shaped a bit by each other. This series was a chance for me to explore the relationship between animals and their environment more closely and in turn consider my own environment and how I have evolved within it. I wanted to approach this project with an element of tenderness and empathy and perhaps these little vignettes will help you rediscover hope, peace, or ambition in your life.
Be kind to yourself. Feel the sun on your skin. Take a deep breath and do your best.
CumuloUrsa
Her wild
suspended in the sky.
Oracle
Its easier to breathe when you can see
the obstacles in your path.
Fern Keeper
Holding the weight of the forest in his antlers
like balancing the storm and the sun.
Mourning Mist
Hold it in your heart;
Healing with every beat.
Astrum Moth
So nimble in the night,
flutters with the flickering starlight.
Misty Trance
