Listen to the Child Painting

Varnished with Satin finish archival varnish, wired, ready to hang, edges are painted dark magenta. This original mixed media painting on canvas entitled ‘Listen to the Child’ is one of the most important lessons I learned on my healing journey. When healing ourselves from trauma we gradually re-connect into our bodies, as compared to the past when it may have been painful to be present. When we get present, we are more highly attuned to our feelings, and that in particular of our inner child. She has deep wisdom and is here to let us know our needs via feelings - what excites us: do that, go there! What gives us a bad feeling - step back, move away! Listen, be guided, trust this inner voice leads to our own empowered healing journey. Part of my Pure Abstraction Series.
