There's a deep quiet that comes after sharing new work. For months, The Sanctuary Collection lived entirely within my studio and my imagination. Then it became something seen and held by others. One piece holds a memory I've been carrying for over thirty years - kayaking on Jordan Pond in Acadia for the first time, surrounded by mountains and stillness. ✨

Before The Sanctuary Collection leaves my studio and enters the world, I wanted to share what the making looks like from the inside: the quiet rhythm, the slow carving, the words that become texture in clay and paper. This collection began, as all my work does, with morning pages and blessings written before the day begins. From those words came the images: light on water, trees reflected in still ponds, shadows on kitchen walls. Each piece was shaped by hand and by heart, inviting rest and reflection into the everyday.

All artwork begins as a small, dormant seed. 🌱 In this reflection from The Sanctuary Collection, artist Sarah K shares how ideas take shape slowly - through rest, rhythm, and the in-between spaces where creativity grows quietly beneath the surface. 🌿

Quiet can feel impossible in a noisy world - but stillness is something we can return to, again and again. ♥️ Artist Sarah K shares how her creative practice becomes a sanctuary in motion, and how you can begin to find your own. 🫶🏼

Burnout isn’t a weakness—it’s what happens when a culture profits from our exhaustion. Rest isn’t wasted time; it’s resistance, renewal, and the foundation of meaningful work.
