Empty Nest Avenue

The series visually communicates the empty nest phase of life beginning with parenthood, to grieving the change of life, and finally the transformation of you ~ the new version. I bought a camera, joined the local photography club, and have been loving it since! This work was created to foster community within this shared experience. Follow Empty Nest Avenue on Instagram and purchase prints and stationery items on Etsy.

Parenthood are the days with our kid(s) ~ when everyday life was colorful and busy with activity ~ vibrant.

Grieving is the period when our kid(s) leave the nest after high school graduation to explore life in college, the work world, or the military ~ during this time, we can feel tremendous grief as we try to find our footing in this new reality ~ stormy. Who am I?

Transformation is the blending of our past experience and acceptance of our new reality ~ we are not who we were before kid(s), we are not who we were with kid(s), we are now a combination of those two time periods blended together ~ serene. We are something new for the world to see! How is your transformation?
