**About the Work and Technique employed:**  
Inspired by my walks through Scotland’s lush forests with my dog, Buffy, this piece captures the essence of nature’s unpredictability. Buffy’s habit of collecting and carrying twigs over long distances piqued my curiosity. This led me to fashion my own painting tools from fallen twigs, attaching markers with strings. These unique tools result in unexpected mark-making, embracing the randomness of each interaction with the paper. This process not only brings joy but also reflects life’s lessons on the limits of our control.
 
**Value added proposition**
New collectors are invited to a yoga or meditation session with the artist as well as a conversation about yoga, meditation and our experience seeking a connection to the greater scheme of things.

In addition, existing collectors enjoy priority for starting work on a commision piece.
