Gratitude from us to you too as it was an incredibly meaningful and bonding experience. The left was mine and the right Gabi and we came together in the middle. Our hands became lost in each other- intertwined as we closed the gap. Beautiful experience for us and incredibly soothing. Yes Gabriella did them free thinking and spontaneous as she went along. On the left I’ve tried to give the impression of the woman emerging from nature and supported by nature. There is a bird feeding on grapes, the ocean. The left bottom corner representing our emotions and water, the ferns /flowers beneath her feet, to represent nature and a soft bed of green oxygen, which gives us breath and life, (especially during these times). There is a gentle rabbit hidden in the grass, and I’ve put my name near her buttock. Gabi also put her name top of page near P. Gabi wanted to bring in peace, the animal kingdom(snail, fish in sea, bubbles of air, butterfly, moon, stars, planets, snowflakes(we saw snow for the first time two years ago in Zakopane and the stillness of that experience was memorable for us as a family). Music is a huge part of her life and those she added , and I see she placed clouds carrying peace … the movement seems to be going to the right…. oh and the rain drops she mentioned… nurturing the earth. The only thing we thought about placing was the woman and we wanted a figure carrying the words. All free thinking as we went along. – Valentina Knight
