“We have all heard that no two snowflakes are alike. Each snowflake takes the perfect form for the maximum efficiency and effectiveness for its journey. And while the universal force of gravity gives them a shared destination, the expansive space in the air gives each snowflake the opportunity to take their own path. They are on the same journey, but each takes a different path.

Along this gravity-driven journey, some snowflakes collide and damage each other, some collide and join together, some are influenced by wind… there are so many transitions and changes that take place along the journey of the snowflake. But, no matter what the transition, the snowflake always finds itself perfectly shaped for its journey.” Steve Maraboli

I read this passage last winter and I love how it’s worded. I love words and they always find a way into my paintings…it feels natural. Whilst the sun is still rising and the sky just holds its darkness is a beautiful time.

Enchantment is this painting. You can read the words scribbled into the paint ‘flocons sont jamais la meme’.
