What moats do we build around us? Do they make us feel safe and whole, or bound and lonely?

"You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.
Embody me.

Flare up like a flame
and make big shadows I can move in."

• Rainer Maria Rilke, Book of Hours

Painted from life with acrylic on board, now updated to find its home on-chain.

"I love my Body" series celebrates our bodies in quick gestures--passing moments that say "This is me, I am. "

This work is part of the Everything Passes Collection:
Paintings exploring passing moments in life, the big and small of the everyday: our bodies, quiet victories, relationships up close, beauty around us.
