'Crossings' recalls my exploration of a new route within our local landscape, navigating life around the practicalities of new parenthood and taking time to connect beyond screens and notifications. I was drawn to the crumbling bowed wall on this walk, shadowed by trees and pierced by two thin pipes cutting across the stream's route. The thin layers of acrylic paint capture the soft light of early spring, and the calm natural palette reflects my emotional memory of the space.
