Wing Whisperer
11″x14″ Mixed Media on Aquabord

I am the one who brings the gift of freedom

I am the one who helps you to find your wings, for they are already yours, hiding within you just waiting for your heart’s invitation to unfold

I am the one who sees your unique beauty, the colors that are yours alone

I am the one who opens my hands in release

I am the one who watches in gratitude and delight as you climb into the sky

I am the witness to your flight

I am the grounded presence that holds space for your freedom

I am passion and power, and these I give to you through grace

I am the one with open eyes, open heart, open hands

I look skyward into the realm of Spirit

I am a priestess, an alchemist, a sorceress of light and transformation

I am the freer of dreams

I am Wing Whisperer

Recently I had the honor of creating my first commissioned piece for a client. She had a clear idea of what she wanted and the meaning she wanted it to convey. It was both challenging and fun to interpret her vision through my own heart and hands, translating its beauty and depth through paint and paper. When I finished the piece, I wasn’t sure what to call it so I decided to use the “I am the one who . . .” reading process that I learned in SoulCollage®. I let the woman in the painting speak and learned that her name is Wing Whisperer.

We all have wings waiting to unfold. May you find your own Wing Whisperer (hint: she may be inside of you) so you can spread your wings and fly, coloring this world in a way that only you can.
