No. 20 Mary Oliver Poems

December 2022 ||10"H x 10" W || Acrylic on Canvas 

This item on my gratitude list was inspired by countless mornings on my fire escape with a cup of coffee, reading Mary Oliver's book of poetry, "Devotions." 

Color-wise, this piece consists of shades of warm reds and pinks. It is finished with a high-gloss varnish, so it looks sleek & shiny. I love how it looks combined with some of the other warm green pieces. 

Each piece in the contentment collection is stamped with an item pulled from gratitude lists in my journals, which I've been writing consistently for ten years now. They are meant to be mix & matched so you can choose the colors and phrases that speak to you. I hope when you look at them, they serve as a reminder to practice gratitude.
