Linger, A Book Cover Project

This Iris was painted for a book cover project for Erika Gordon, who’s book of poetry is slated to come out early next year. I have been so inspired by her poem, which reminds me to slow down and linger in all the beauty, and how my entire existence changes with this practice …

Of Eyes and Flowers

Linger
at the iris
for one moment longer,

see
how it changes
everything.
