Journal.

"The main focus of my work has become storytelling...
honouring the lives + stories of women
through portraiture."

'The Quiet Earth'

You will remember that leaping stream
where sweet aroma rose and trembled
and sometimes a bird, wearing water
and slowness, its winter feathers.

You will remember those gifts from the earth:
indelible scents, gold clay,
weeds in the thicket and crazy roots,
magical thorns like swords.

You'll remember the bouquet you picked,
shadows and silent water,
bouquet like a foam-covered stone.

That time was like never, and like always.
So we go there, where nothing is waiting;
we find everything waiting there.

~ Pablo Neruda
