Drowning Slowly

Drowning Slowly 11 x 14 inches Acrylic on canvas Sarah Marris-Swann 2022 Painted in the summer of 2022, during a period of change and transition. I felt like I was barely holding my head above water, but drowning so slowly that no one else would notice. This painting is about being present in that feeling and holding space for growth to happen, manifesting the blooming of fungi and lavender and echinacea, stopping time to feed the bees, building a harmonious existence with the world around me.
