THOUGHTS & EVENTS

The Unfinished Wing

6/2/2025

0 Comments

 
A note from Ivette – June 2025

When I first shared Emotional Landscapes, I believed the collection would be complete by the time the show opened.

But something shifted.
Somewhere between brushstrokes and daily life—between beauty, softness, and reality—I stopped rushing toward a finish line. I realized that forcing a painting to be “done” simply to meet a deadline was the opposite of what this collection stands for.

So, some of the works you’ll see at the opening are unfinished.
Intentionally. Unapologetically.
Not because I ran out of time--
but because I ran into truth.

These pieces now belong to what I’m calling The Unfinished Wing:
Paintings still becoming. Stories still being written. Emotions still unfolding.
Half the show is polished. Half is raw.
Just like me.

Not about perfection. About presence.

So if you come, you’ll see both:
The glow of completion and the shimmer of what's still in motion.

And if a piece speaks to you, finished or not—then maybe it’s already whole.

Thanks for walking this unfolding path with me.
I’ll be at the opening. And I’d love to see you there.

With love,
Ivette

Emotional Landscapes

5/19/2025

0 Comments

 
There’s a quiet kind of magic that happens in the early hours—when light first meets the mountains, and the sky becomes a canvas of shifting color and mood. For years, I’ve watched this happen through my window. And somewhere along the way, I realized I wasn’t just watching the landscape—I was watching myself.
​
Emotional Landscapes is a reflection of that slow, beautiful unfolding.
Each piece in this collection is a study in contrast, softness, and internal movement—a visual mirror of the skies above the landscape without and the emotions within.

These aren’t traditional landscapes.
They’re emotional ones.
Painted moments that speak of light, shadow, stillness, and becoming.
​
This collection is deeply personal, but I hope it also speaks to something universal:
The quiet ache of change.
The beauty in uncertainty.
The peace that arrives when we stop trying to control the landscape—and simply witness it.
