This piece represents my year between the shadows of sorrow and the light of understanding. This year has brought much despair, but being able to understand the shadows of life and being able to turn on the light has show me life is fragile and not forever. The mix between light and shadows, shows that you can work past total darkness and cast light on life's balancing act. Finding the right balance to stand strong and see past the shadows of despair and mix in light brings new ideas, new feelings and understanding the balance of life’s mysteries.
