The last collection of a year-long series of work — following Stone and Stream and Sand and Sky — each rooted in the deep connection my work holds with the natural world. Soil and Sun turns toward what is warm, grounding, and life-giving. It gestures to autumn and the quiet reset it brings in the Northern Hemisphere. This body of work explores the richness beneath our feet and the radiant energy above — two elemental forces shaping every landscape and every season. In the deep earth tones there is familiarity, memory, and grounding. In the golden light there is renewal, warmth, and opportunity. Together, they emphasize cycles of endings and beginnings. As the closing series of the year, Soil and Sun leans into the earth and the sun, offering a grounded sense of arrival—a reminder that in both soil and sun, we find what regenerates and sustains us.
