Overview

What happens when your world breaks apart, and the only way to find the pieces is to paint them? The Shattering is more than a memoir; it is a visual and mythic reclamation of the soul. After a decade-long battle to bring her daughter home and a lifetime of surviving the unreachable, artist Brittanie Mood began to paint, not just images, but the map of her own healing. The Journey Through the lens of ""The Lantern Stag,"" mythic landscapes, and deeply personal symbolism, this book follows a winding path from fracture to wholeness. It is the story of the girl who was, the mother who fought, and the woman who finally integrated every shattered piece of her past.

Each chapter pairs raw, evocative prose with high-textured art that breathes life into the emotional realities of survival. This book invites readers to step into a world built from symbols and landscapes, offering a companion to anyone walking their own long road back to themselves.
