Morning Rose

Morning Rose, 2019

Rosa

 “Love speaks in flowers. Truth requires thorns.”

This quote is meaningful to me. There is such magnificence in a rose, yet as I pluck one from my garden I often get pierced by a thorn. Morning Rose was one such rose. It had many thorns lining its stem and it drew blood. I wondered whether I should use the spiky thorns in my design, as it added a rugged truthfulness to my art, but in the end I decided against it. Sometimes keeping the barbs hidden is the best solution. Now the simplicity and beauty of this rose speaks only of love.
