Artwork Description

The space between breathing

We often think about busy bees rather than feeling into their energy of focus and flow. There is a stillness within their movement between flowers and a sense of ease within the tasks that fill their day. Bees are in harmony with their world and offer us the wisdom of how to find space and flow in our own lives. This bee hovering in the garden between the flowers is that sense of space. It is that space in between the business of gathering and providing and doing. The place where we are present within the moment. This is the feeling of that space of pause, just before we take our next breath. This is what harmony feels like to me and it has a sense of aliveness and energy in its stillness. The flow that is that connected space here in this beautiful Earth Garden offers a sense of life being exactly where it needs to be right now and that the harmony of nature…of life, will find its way forward as each of us choose our own space between.

This small bee painting offers a sacred reminder of the space and harmony within each of us as we take time to notice and pause between breathing. Being mindful as we go into our day and in the present moment.

The artwork was created as a guided intuitive process of color play and mindful connection as I felt my way through the layers and found this bee wanting to take form. Soft colors play against areas of bright contrast. The words add to the story as we step into the garden space and pause in as areas of collage show through and invite us in.

‘The spaces in between’ artwork will bring a sense of connection, flow harmony. These quiet moments between things are pauses and clearings that bring a sense of presence and pause as you breathe into the beauty of this day. These are the spaces of possibilities where harmony lives. These in-between spaces are how we create our ‘sweet little dreams.’

Artist Bio

Cheryle Bannon – Melbourne Artist – I love to paint calm happy art as imagined impressionistic nature stories that bring a feeling of calm happy spaces for the heart and home. Art is meaning making as a path to understanding our world and finding our way back to harmony and balance.
Available for PAINTINGS, COMMISSIONS, PRINTS of selected artworks and whimsical mixed media sculptures.
I am a mixed media painter and sculptor and have always been involved in the creative arts. I taught art in secondary schools for 30 years alongside regular group shows. I have been a fulltime artist since 2018, exhibiting in both group and solo shows.
I have artworks in private collections both nationally and internationally. I have been an artist in residence working with disengaged youth and in a primary school cluster project.

My intuitive art process is inspired by the random beauty of nature, animal wisdom and birds as a guided process that is a way of making meaning in a world out of balance. I explore colour and light through natural images that inspire emotional connection to our stories through the natural world. Colourful mixed media images begin with symbols and words that build the feeling and energy of the evolving art story. Art as visual stories evoke a sense of peace and balance connecting us to our world. I view art as a meditative process that is mindful and healing. I paint in a variety of sizes using layers of colour, texture and form, using a variety of media such as acrylic paint or watercolour. Art is built through the layers, with a variety of mark-making, collage, inks, pastels, crayons, and resin. The layers create a depth that invites us into the story imagery that comes alive within the art. We enter these visual stories as a participant connecting to the energy and feeling of the piece.
My art is a way to pause and explore the layers of colour, emotion and story that are an, honouring of the Earth and her wisdom. through exploring the depth of our personal and global connected storied worlds. Art is an exploration of inner landscapes and outer worlds as a way to connect to those breathing spaces that remind us of balance and flow.
Every beautiful moment brings inspiration and opens us to connections to our own calm happy heart stories.
