Do we need to accept anything in life? Does acceptance bring a sense of peace or disappointing surrender? There are moments that stick with you over time. Becoming their own event with details that get hazy but emotions that grow stronger. These moments turn over in your soul and have their own narrative until they demand acceptance. This series is an exploration of three pivotal moments in my life and the journey through their perspective in the months or years that followed. Acceptance is a journey within myself, embracing things that cannot be changed and looking for the beauty that grows out of defining events in our lives.
Painted over the course of several years, these paintings were an exploration into the experience of processing acceptance. They are made up of many layers and the initial painting that covered the canvas is not the same as the final layers when they declared themselves finished. Acceptance is rich, layered and full of an emotional spectrum.
