The Butterfly Effect

I am temporarily back from hiatus. Since my book has been released I've been busy writing, and publicizing and haven't had time for new designs. With that said, here are some prints I created for the release of my book Snowflake Obsidian: Memoir of a Cutter.


Chrysalis: Where transformation takes place. Key word: Surrender! I also like to think of the Serenity Prayer when I am undergoing major shifts and changes in my life:
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. This process can either be beautiful and exciting if you accept, surrender and flow, or painful and full of anxiety and suffering if you resist.

Butterfly: Rebirth! Expresses joy of growth, gratitude for blessings, new experiences and shifts in perspective. Celebrate your growth!
Awaken Tee: I'm going to let this design be self-explanatory.
Caterpillar: The idea stage of a new creation, teaches of patience and timing. Move for the moment.

All designs are by Casey Kawaguchi who was commissioned to do the artwork for Snowflake Obsidian. He is an amazing artist! Visit YouTube to see some of his time-lapse paintings.
