This tiny arugula flower, painted from the artist’s own garden, carries memory, tenderness, and transformation. Once a beloved part of daily gardening life, arugula now lives in new form: as a painting and as a reflection of what it means to keep becoming. This piece honors the bittersweet grief of letting go and the quiet power of adaptation. It is a portrait of resilience and of allowing what’s no longer possible to give way to new growth,
new practice, new love.
