QUIET WILDERNESS

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately…”
– Henry David Thoreau

“Quiet Wilderness” is a contemplative body of work exploring the profound need for solitude and reconnection with nature as a means of healing and rebirth. Each piece evokes the stillness of moonlit landscapes, the whisper of trees, the green hush of earth’s breath, and the sacred space between dreams and waking life.
Through abstract textures and muted tones, this collection — where silence speaks, the moon listens, and the self is quietly restored.

Using abstract textures and a muted palette of green, mauve, and shadow, each piece becomes a visual diary of emotional retreat and invites you into a liminal space between dreaming and waking, light and dark, solitude and serenity

Conversations Without Words

The quiet centre of the collection, where everything is said without sound.

Conversations Without Words is a meditation on connection beyond language. Through layered mark-making and restrained composition, it expresses the unspoken, the glance, the presence, the energy we feel when words fail.

It holds the power of stillness. The kind of communion that exists between trees, between lovers, between a person and themselves when all else falls away.

This piece invites you to listen differently. To feel the spaces in between. To remember that silence can be just as full as sound, and often, more truthful.

Only In My Dreams

A gentle drifting, this piece lives in the in-between.

Only In My Dreams is a reflection of the subconscious: fleeting, poetic, hard to hold. It moves like mist through memory, evoking the sensation of something felt more than known.

Painted with softness and intuitive motion, it captures the surreal clarity of dreams, where emotions are heightened, logic dissolves, and we glimpse truths we may never articulate in waking life.

This piece is a portal, a pause, an invitation to surrender to the spaces just beyond reach. A knowing that change is necessary, an aching longing and for a space and life you have never known.

Talking to the Moon

A nocturne for the soul — this piece captures the sacred ritual of speaking into the night.

Talking to the Moon is an ode to the conversations we have when no one else is listening. In the hush of darkness, under silver light, we pour out truths too tender for daylight. This work holds that intimacy, a space where longing meets surrender, and reflection feels safe.

With its shadowed tones and delicate illuminations, it invites the viewer into their own quiet dialogue with something greater, softer, unseen.

It is less about answers, and more about being heard, even by the moon and stars.

The Colour of Green

A grounded meditation on renewal, this piece honours nature as sanctuary, as salve.

The Colour of Green speaks to the quiet, restorative energy found in the earth’s embrace. Rich in textured layers and rooted hues, it evokes moss underfoot, leaves in dappled light, and the pulse of life beneath the surface.

This work is about emotional refuge, the way nature holds us when we have nothing left to hold ourselves. It’s the moment your feet touch soil after a storm; the inhale of eucalyptus after tears.

Here, green is more than colour, it is breath, earth, softness, healing.

For You, For Me

This work is a quiet meditation on the gentle relationship between self-healing and emotional generosity.

“For You, For Me” reflects the idea that taking space for ourselves — to rest, to breathe, to mend — is not an act of retreat, but an offering.
Through soft, layered textures and a subdued, nurturing palette, this piece captures the essence of personal restoration and the way it quietly overflows into how we care for others.

When we tend to ourselves, we restore the well from which we give.
When we choose solitude, we return more present.
When we heal inwardly, we love outwardly — more fully, more freely.

This painting embodies that exchange.
A visual poem to the truth that what we do for ourselves, we ultimately do for those we love
