FreeThis piece to me is about how your burdens can make you feel trapped even when they’re not as tight as they seem. How even though you feel stuck the chains aren’t that tight you’re still able to fly and the sadness isn’t a constant thing. This can be emphasized by how the linocut bird turned out. The reason I chose a Swallow is because they have a meaning in the bible, the bird of freedom.

Close to MePeople wear lockets to keep something they love close to them whether it be a pet, a loved one, or the smell of a plant. It’s close to their heart and worn every day out of love. A constant love I have is a love for Jesus, the love for his sacrifice, his kindness, his hope, his mercy, his love. I wanted to make a locket that represents the affection we have for one another to how Jesus loves us in the same way.

Opening PassionOpening Passion is the example of transformation in love. You have the burning passion in the center of your heart and the daffodile representing your rebirth or new beginnings and the lines reaching out to you just as warm as the sun bringing in the emphasis of love. I made this piece to represent those feelings, when you’re being open and passionate about who you are and the things you love.
