Trusting What Grows draws on the untamed energy of a spring garden, where lively gestures, raw earthy tones and bursts of colour create a sense of abundance and vitality. Suggesting beautiful weeds, overgrowth and nature left to its own devices, the work reflects on the instinct to intervene, control and question whether enough is being done.
Rooted in experiences of motherhood, the painting considers the quiet realization that growth often happens without constant guidance. Like a garden finding its own way, children continue to surprise, flourish and exceed expectations when given space to become themselves.
