Text: Sophia Kidd

The artist painted this painting while sitting in her New York city apartment. This is an example of how an artist has such a deep experience of nature that even when isolated within concrete walls, they can still recall an image of what moved them. This recalls traditional Chinese painters who, not able to travel to natural scenery they wished to paint, woud rely on memory to create a painted image of what was in their heart. This image, along with All Waters are Connected, was painted while writing about the eight principles of water, part of her most recent publication, Water Talks (Steiner Press, 2023).
