A Canopy of Hope
Week 4 — Trees of Plenty: The Season of Abundance
As the exhibition enters its another week, the narrative shifts from the inner landscape to the outward flourishing. The Trees of Plenty step forward as symbols of restoration, rootedness, and divine abundance. They carry the promise that the inner work of rest and healing always leads to fruitfulness — not forced, not rushed, but naturally emerging in its right season.
Each tree holds its own blessing:
Wisdom Tree — the clarity that comes after the storm
First Fruits — the early signs of promise fulfilled
Peace Tree — the settled heart, restored and whole
Trees of Plenty — the overflowing abundance that follows surrender
Together, they form a canopy of hope — a visual declaration that what was tended in secret is now ready to bloom in the open.
About Us
Therese Kettman
Studio Owner
In 2021, I answered a long-silent call within me—the desire to create. It began with colors: letting them clash, collide, move, and flow side by side. The more I immersed myself in the process, the more I became lost in a world of boundless exploration. I discovered that I had been holding back, denying the inner tug to take a chance, to embrace freedom, to get gloriously messy. I realized something beautiful: I don’t need to know what the end will look like, because the real magic happens in the adventure of the 'in between.'
This journey has been all about taking a plunge—a leap into the unknown, into a new world of exploration:
A plunge into discovering my artist voice.
A plunge into building new connections and finding my creative community.
A plunge into recognizing my worth in simply being—giving and receiving.
A plunge into vulnerability, visibility, and courage to take risks.
A plunge into unfamiliar territory, like stepping into a foreign land where I don’t know the language or the cultural rules.
And so, here I go, stepping boldly into this adventure of creativity and transformation.
