Watercolour and Silver Leaf
Don’t Be Afraid
Fear is a machine that feeds from itself
Reverse back
A gentle footstep
Unclasp your hand
Palms open
Walk forward by the light from within
Journey
A fringe of heavy foliage
Vines alive, encircling
You have to go through who you are
To get to who you can be
Wild and steady and free
Beauty asks for nothing
The quiet hum
A precipice
Fluttering under the skin
Sunlight on an ageless rock
Immersion into space

Her poem ‘Still I Rise’ incorporated into painting.
Inspired by the song and tale behind Leonard Cohen’s ‘Sisters of Mercy’.
They came from the sun. Were of light. Breaking through the day.
“If I fall I will fall five feet four inches forward in the fight for freedom.”
