Opening
Acrylic on 16x20
 
Opening captures the outward expression of something that has been quietly forming—the moment when internal movement begins to extend beyond itself.
 
The composition expands with a sense of release, as forms stretch and lift away from their center. There is a lightness here, a soft unfolding that suggests space being created where there was once tension or compression.
 
This piece reflects a stage of becoming where something once internal begins to find expression—not fully defined, not complete, but no longer held in the same way. It is the gentle transition from inward awareness to outward presence.
 
Part of the “Where Feeling Begins” series
This piece is one of three connected works exploring the stages of inner movement—Stirring, Turning, and Opening. Each can stand alone, but together they form a continuous visual experience of something unfolding.
