I recently created this canvas as I explored a recurring theme in my life and artistic expression. This idea, which I originally created over 30 years ago, expresses my belief in the miracle of and connection between all living things. I created the flower and rainbow from paper with accents of beads and tulle. The snowflake is a refurbished charm from a old bracelet.

This is the original piece, created in 1992. The image has become a personal symbol of life’s wonder, mystery, and promise. The design features a rainbow, flower, and snowflake, representing the continuity and interconnectedness of life. The Austrian crystal in the center of the snowflake adds a touch of magic!

I turned to this image, as I have during other difficult times, while I was healing from my grief.
