The Light Phases
The Story Behind Phase I – V (Light)
The Light Phases are the sister series to the Dark Phases, echoing the same cycle of the moon—but on a soft, bright backdrop that feels like early morning light or the quiet glow of dawn.
Each piece in this series was created with the same layered, mixed media process, finished in oil, and designed to mirror the natural phases of change, growth, and renewal. While the Dark Phases speak to mystery, depth, and the unseen, these Light Phases offer a sense of openness, clarity, and quiet hope. Together, they tell a fuller story—of light and dark, fullness and emptiness, presence and waiting.
For me, this series also holds personal meaning. It reflects the gentle light that started to return to my life as I found my way back to faith, to motherhood, and to the simple beauty of noticing God’s presence in the ordinary. It speaks to the softer side of those unseen rhythms—the nurturing cycles of creation, the tides of motherhood, and the steady pull toward wholeness.
The Light Phases can stand alone, be displayed as a set, or be mixed and matched with the Dark Phases for a dynamic pairing that reflects both contrast and unity. Whether you choose one or several, these pieces invite you to reflect on the beauty of every season—the light, the dark, and all the phases in between.
Part of The Firmament Collection, this mini-series ties into the larger body of work through its celestial themes and timeless palette, while offering its own quiet invitation to embrace change, beauty, and renewal.
