The Grounding Light Collection was originally inspired by a previous painting, from the 100 Paintings series, called Cloud Covered Field. It has become so much more meaningful and personal to me since then. While I was creating each piece, I was also going through some of the most challenging times of my life. Grounding light, to me, is the resilient force that keeps us going through those hard times. It’s a reminder to ground yourself and trust in your ability to withstand the storm and to always look for the light in the dark and the beautiful moments those hard experiences can bring.

The Grounding Light Collection is dedicated to my beautiful mother, Leanne Bruen. She left this world too soon and will always remain a grounding light in my life.
