the wanderess

wanderess: n. A woman or girl who travels the world or her country in search of meaning, or else engaging in artistic pursuits. Urban Dictionary

I walk through the forest alone. I smell the forest floor. I feel the earth beneath my feet. I see the sun skip across the water. I hear the sound of leaves kissed by a breeze.

My landscapes are built from both dreams and reality. The wanderings of my body merge with my mind where lucid dreams take me into imagined territory. Releasing my mind, I free myself to discover my own internal and external world.

“Try to find the right place for yourself. If you can't find it, at least dream of it.”

- Mary Oliver
