There’s a constant pull between control and chaos. As a neurodivergent mother, I feel it intensely as I strive to simply meet the demands of daily life. In an effort to abandon negative coping patterns, I now find my peace through the process of painting and experimental printmaking. My recent work reflects my personal challenge to channel my inner chaos as I seek out the serene.
