The story behind “Back of the Heart”:
Of all the pieces in The Firmament Collection, Back of the Heart carries a kind of quiet that feels sacred—like standing on the edge of something unseen, where breath, longing, and spirit begin to move.
At first glance, the woman in this painting appears soft, almost fragile. But look closer, and you’ll see her eyes are open—gazing downward, caught in that tender space between thought and surrender. It’s not a picture of sleep or escape, but of still awareness. She’s present. She’s listening. She’s holding space for something deeper.
The earthy tones and subtle drips create a sense of softness, like a whispered prayer moving through open hands. Layered in mixed media and finished with oil, the textures feel raw and unfinished—like the honest offering of the heart when words fall short.
Back of the Heart isn’t loud. It doesn’t demand attention. But in its stillness, it holds space for the quiet, unseen work of prayer—the kind that flows not from perfect words, but from a heart quietly turned toward something greater.
Part of The Firmament Collection, this piece honors the sacred in-between—the place where heaven feels near, where grace moves softly, and where the simple act of being present becomes a prayer all its own.
Because sometimes, the holiest moments happen when no one else can see—
in the back of the heart.
