Open Palm, Open Path

$300.00

Steam-set, French silk dye on 100% Habotai silk

12" x 9” silk mounted on 14” x 11” x 1.5” gessoed canvas framed in a luxurious rustic gold floating frame

“Breakthrough” captures the electrifying moment just before transformation becomes flight. A hand, open and steady, releases a luminous Pipevine Swallowtail butterfly into the world—symbolizing strength, readiness, and the courage to rise beyond what has ever been done before.

Layered on a hand-dyed shibori background in earthy greens, the image is grounded in nature’s wisdom. The butterfly's iridescent blues and blacks contrast the soft natural tones, creating a visual harmony between the grounded self and the expansive spirit. The silk’s translucency allows the background’s textures to breathe through the hand and wings, deepening the sense of movement and awakening.

The Pipevine Swallowtail speaks of breakthrough—not through force, but with grace, clarity, and a deep inner knowing. It reminds us that even the smallest, most delicate beings are capable of immense strength and transformation. This painting is a visual mantra for those ready to step into a new level of purpose, power, and inspired action.

This original 14x11" silk painting is mounted and framed—a sacred invitation to let go of what no longer serves and rise into what is uniquely yours to do.

An original artwork by Laura Fox-Wallis
