You Are My Sunshine

Description

You Are My Sunshine was inspired by a bicycle ride down a mountain in Croatia. The drop was very steep and there were large trucks passing me. I was terrified, so I sang the song ‘You are my sunshine’ to give myself courage as I pedalled. The words from my journal that inspired this starfish mat, and that are written around the edges of the design are “Inner listening. Open heart. You are exactly where you need to be.”
