Art Inspo: Gold Leaf
Art Inspo: Gold Leaf
The story behind the art.
I wanted to capture what I felt when I started feeling better. I wasn’t the Amanda I was before I went through depression, but a version of myself that came out stronger. Leaves represent hope and renewal while the gold symbolizes elegance and a renaissance, a revival. When I felt a new hope, I felt the richness of energy that shines and shimmers like the gold on the leaf. So far, I’ve chosen to put this print on apparel. Ones that flow easily and, like the wrap skirt, can be created into more than just what it says it can be (I wrapped it into a top!)
Keeping in mind, this revival isn’t a one time experience. I know and have been through depressive episodes since the first; I now know what it feels like, what I can do when I feel it (essentially, I have made sense of it) and know that I will come out of it with a new leaf to turn.
This print is available on our shop.
The print can also be available on other products. If you don’t see it in store, make a request. We can make things happen!
Let us know what you think, we’d love to hear from you.

While on vacation we decided to show you how easy it is to use this wrap and wear it two different ways!
