Stronger Sails

“Stronger Sails” is my last creation of 2024. 
It’s not consistent, it’s not symmetrical, and all the beads pass through the crows skull before revealing beads unlike the others used in the rest of the pieces. 
It’s understandable that we would wish for a life with fewer storms, with more consistency, more symmetry. But the reality is that life is the storm, and what we should hope is that our sails become stronger with every opportunity we get to live within it. 
So for the owner of this piece, my wish for you, is the strength to find the beauty and opportunity in every anomaly, every discrepancy and every divergence along the way in this coming year. 
A wish for stronger sails rather than a life with fewer storms.
