Capturing the Wind (2023)
Watercolor on paper 10”×14
 
An elderly Black woman with her head wrapped and dressed in a well-worn apron. She hangs linens on a vintage clothesline, the fabric catching the wind, like sails in motion. The scene shows cloth texture, evoking both nostalgia and a sense of quiet strength.
 
Capturing the Wind serves as a metaphor for embracing change and using it to steer the course of one’s life. Just as the wind dries and renews the linens, so too can the winds of change refresh and redirect us toward new possibilities.
