When I painted this Whimsical Hot Air Balloon Print, I was an exhausted and sleep deprived new mom. I just needed some space and a chance to let go, to trust that life would carry me where I needed to go instead of always feeling like I had to push forward on my own. I needed to trust in the magic of the season of life I was in – to let go of the need to solve every puzzle and simply be held and hold my small children in a loving embrace.

I needed the feeling of a warm summer night, standing in the breeze, letting it gently and soothingly wrap around me. I thought about running through a field, arms stretched wide, feeling weightless and free. I needed to be a little girl again, sitting next to my dad, looking up at the Milky Way through our telescope—small, but safe, knowing I was held.

That feeling of both adventure and safety, of boundless possibility wrapped in warmth—that is what I needed. These whimsical hot air balloons, floating gently against a starry deep indigo sky, are a reminder to me: You are not alone. There is space for you to dream, to breathe, to be carried effortlessly toward all that is meant for you.

Hang this print in your home as an invitation—to return to the wonder, the warmth, the trust in life’s unfolding. To feel, once again, the magic of being held in a universe that loves you.

Made to order (to prevent waste) and printed in the USA. Printed on premium archival paper for lasting quality.
