BEAUTY
Thank You, Earth and Sky: We Are Wrapped In Beauty

The heart of this body of work is an invitation to slow down and acknowledge the living beauty that surrounds us, from the animals and plants to the sky and everything in between. We are all living beings, and it's important to recognize not only the visual beauty of these places, but also the gifts they provide that allow us to live and exist as human beings.
Photographing these landscapes is more than a privilege to witness; it is medicine for our mind, body, and spirit. Through this exhibition, we hope to share what Hózhó means to us and how it has shaped and blessed our lives.

Say hello to one of our summer guests… 🐦✨
It’s hard to believe summer is already winding down. Soon these little visitors will be heading south, and I’ll miss their sweet presence in the yard, the long evenings, and especially this beautiful golden light✨✨✨
Trying to savor every last bit of summer before it slips away✨🥲

💫Milky Way last night✨💫

Yikáísdáhá, That Which Awaits the Dawn.
In Navajo astronomy, Yikáísdáhá is the eighth and final of the main constellations, symbolizing completeness, wholeness, and the fulfillment of a cycle.
Its appearance is tied to the annual journey of the Milky Way. During the early pre-dawn hours of mid-January, the Milky Way aligns with the horizon in such a way that it forms a complete circle around the observer. For a brief time, the galaxy can be seen stretching in every direction, encircling the Earth in a breathtaking display.
In Navajo sandpaintings, the Milky Way is represented as a crosshatched line, reflecting its changing position across the night sky through the seasons.
Yikáísdáhá reminds us that everything in nature moves in cycles, each ending carrying the promise of a new beginning.

Another one for ya….enjoy✨🪄
