Sometimes, you have to let go of all control, hang on to the mane, trust the process, and just ride.  And what a ride it is! Breathtaking, exhilarating, and a little bit (sometimes a LOT) scary.  Yet after the ride, as your heart rate returns to normal and you can stand on firm ground again, all you can say is - "I want to do that again!"

The butterfly is a symbol of transformation, and in this painting I was exploring the changes occurring in my life - it is a reminder that change, while it can be uncomfortable and scary, is a necessary part of life.  We are constantly transforming, whether we are aware of it or not. Fear, anger and sadness are by-products of resistance to change.
