Description:
Created during Chapter 2 (2020 - 2023), this piece is part of the Versions of Robert Collection—a deeply personal body of work reflecting my journey through my mother’s stroke, dissociation, and eventual dementia. This period of my life involved immense inner soul work, each piece acting as a page in a diary, accompanied by a poem or story.
“Morning Bud” represents the beginning of a new practice—a morning meditation in art. This was the first image to reveal itself, an intuitive dialogue between the brush and the subconscious. It embodies the gentle unfolding of the inner soul, a visual whisper of renewal and quiet awakening.
There is no poem for this piece, as the image itself is the meditation—the feeling of presence in the moment, the acceptance of what is, and the quiet invitation to listen.
This piece serves as a reminder that every day is a new bud, waiting to open in its own time.
