"Untethered" Original Mixed Media Mosaic on 16x16 Wood Canvas

I discovered the sky was not above me, but waiting quietly within, crossing valleys of memory, fields of longing, the unfinished landscapes Of wild possibility. for the hidden current moving beneath all things. The one that carries rivers to the sea. The one that teaches the eagle the shape of seasons. I wonder how much of my life has been spent gripping the branch, when all along the sky was asking for trust. Untethered is about the moment we realize that what we've been searching for isn't somewhere out there, but already lives within us. Inspired by the image of an eagle perched high above the world, it reflects on the tension between holding on and trusting what calls us forward. The eagle becomes a symbol of possibility, reminding us that sometimes the hardest part isn't finding our wings, it's letting go of the branch.
