"Pusteblume" has changed me and my business and my life because during the painting process and because of it, I stepped fully into the identity of being a professional artist. Like a dandelion transforms from what we call in Germany "Lion Tooth" (when having the yellow flower petals) turns into this magical globe of feathery seeds that blow away with the breath of intention without knowing yet where they will and root to grow or vanish, I transformed from a businesswoman disconnect from my creative heart to an unstoppable effervescent well of newfound joy for love and myself. The image carries symbols of things and people close to my heart: The brain honoring my brilliant intellect, the palette and brush honoring my creativity, the guardian angel holding by two sons and protecting my paragliding husband, the necklace symbolizing the loving bond between my mother and me being a true replica of the necklace she bought me during our last shopping trip before her dementia took that possibility from us, starship Enterprise symbolizing my loving bond with my dad with whom I watched for years every Sunday snuggling on the sofa the TV series with the Vulcan Spock and Captain Kirk. The hummingbird honors the beauty of my personal paradise in Southern California. The 9 keys honor the steps of the Talisman process. The bees symbolize the abundance I choose to live in and my commitment to my work. The keys reflected in the eyes are carrying the message for the viewer: You are the key! And the dandelion flowers are the power of Intentional Creativity: I blow intentionally, yet then I let go of dominating the movement and allow to happen what wants to happen. I am my own Talisman. I'm Pusteblume.
