The crooked trees are the ones that always catch my eye.

They grow in unexpected ways but always towards the sun. You can tell that their growth journey hasn't always been easy by the strange directions some of the branches have taken. But that's what makes them interesting and beautiful. The imperfections, the uniqueness.

It wasn't lost on me the metaphors that could be made between trees and us as humans. I think that even when we face adversities and still forge on, that is when we become most beautiful. Our crookedness - ever reaching for the sun and refusing to stop blooming makes us who we are. This tree now has spring buds and I pass it most days when I drive my son to school, but I snapped this photo back in late winter because the crooked branches spoke to me in their "perfect, imperfection". My apologies for the cheesy song reference... but I do think he's onto something.

I was afraid when I first saw the lines settling into my skin.

Now I have learned that these are the beauty marks of aging gracefully. As an artist I strive to share through my art, the lessons I have learned in life. The Queen Anne's lace flower to me symbolizes our silver hairs, well-earned laugh lines and emboldened sense of self.

May these lines and silver hairs bring with them strength, wisdom and an ability to love ourselves as we are.

Flowers growing at the edge of my yard were stamped with ink and delicately pressed into the toned paper making this drawing extra special.

Thus the name "Anne's Whisper".

Celebrating our journey as women, from navigating relationships, careers, motherhood, and empty nests, to finding ourselves again and learning to love who we are and who we are becoming.

It is a journey!

These delicate drawings honor all of the experiences good and bad, because they have taught us to listen to our inner voice, trust our intuition, and value ourselves - imperfections and all.

I chose white flowers to adorn the women in this collection as a symbol of strength and beauty.

Whether we decide to show off our white or silver hairs or cover them up, we can be proud of them. They are part of us and they remind us that we are worthy, strong, wise and more beautiful than ever.

Queen Anne's lace grows free and wild among the other wildflowers in my yard. I often go for walks down in the flower patch by the tiny creek, soaking up the summer sun, and enjoying her simple elegance.

I use this elegant yet bold flower in this drawing, as a symbol of the grace and strength that we acquire as we grow wiser in years. Our silver hairs like our crown, the lines on our skin well-deserved. They tell the stories of where we've been, whom we've loved and whisper hints of who we are still becoming.

Simple lines create a bold yet peaceful silhouette with a crown of Queen Anne's Lace.

Inspired by the gorgeous Aysegül Uçar.
