Luminary
by Erica Lyn Schmidt
Lost in the dark
Vines binding
Thorns piercing
Laying dormant to lessen the pain
Sometimes there comes a moment
When a Luminary passes by
Revealing the hidden path of escape
In this fleeting juncture
They turn around
And they wait
To see if you’ll follow
And you must decide
Even though your body is weak from atrophy
And there are thorns in your feet
Are you brave enough to stand
And start walking
Even though every step forward must be your own
Do you have the courage
To embrace hope
And the audacity
To believe that you deserve better
Before the moment passes
And you slip into darkness once again

Erica Lyn Schmidt
Blurring the lines between traditional painting and sculpture, her work explores the deeper meaning of life’s experiences through whimsical animals, metaphor, and prose. She loves creating characters that didn’t exist before, like conjuring new friends out of thin air. Sometimes a project takes on a life of its own—in these moments it feels like there’s magic in the room.
Erica has been a staple on the roster of Every Day Original, in several volumes of Infected by Art, and on the Chesley Suggestion List twice in the category of Three Dimensional Art. Beyond her own work, she strives to empower other artists as Community Manager of the artist coaching program Unleash Creativity with Marc Scheff. Her past clients include Simon and Schuster Books for Young Readers, 78 Tarot, Royal Tyrrell Museum, Burpee Museum of Natural History, private scientists and collectors.
