The Collection Cycle
Space Through Mindful Curation
When I first started creating art seriously, I thought more was always better. More pieces, more variety, more options for collectors. But living nomadically taught me something profound: space itself has value.
Just as I learned to curate my physical possessions down to what truly matters, I realized my art collections deserved the same thoughtful approach.
Why Collections Need Breathing Room
Every six weeks, the COMING collection (think "coming soon") becomes CURRENT—the main focus for the next six weeks.
At the same time, what was previously CURRENT moves to CLOSING status (think "access closing soon"). After another six weeks, that collection closes completely. Any remaining originals are removed from the website, with only a carefully selected few prints staying available.
This isn't about creating artificial scarcity—it's about giving each body of work the attention it deserves.
When you visit my website, you're not overwhelmed by dozens of collections competing for your attention.
Instead, you see:
What This Means for You
Cleaner Choices: Rather than scrolling through endless options, you can focus on what's available now and make a decision that feels right.
Genuine Exclusivity: When a collection closes, it's truly gone. The originals aren't sitting in storage somewhere—they're either in collectors' homes or no longer available.
Quality Over Quantity: I can pour my energy into creating meaningful collections rather than trying to maintain a massive inventory.
Your Collection Stays Special: Knowing that your piece was available for just 12 weeks makes it feel more precious, not less.
The Prints That Stay
Selected pieces from closed collections remain available as fine art prints—the ones that collectors consistently love and want to share. But the originals? Once they're gone, they're gone.
This isn't about making things harder to get. It's about honoring the natural lifecycle of creative work and making space for what wants to emerge next.
Living Mindfully with Art
Just as I choose to live with fewer possessions but love them more deeply, I want your experience with my art to feel intentional and special.
When you know something won't be available forever, you engage with it differently. You ask yourself: "Does this speak to me?" rather than "I'll think about it later."
The collection cycle creates space... Space for new ideas, space for careful consideration, and space for each piece of art to have its moment in the light.
Because sometimes the most generous thing you can do is know when to let go and make room for what's next.
