Where the Light Begins

The contemplative portrait features an older woman, whose demeanor and gentle hands suggest a deep, enduring wisdom. She is painted in soft tones of blue and peach, giving her a slightly vintage and timeless quality. Surrounding her are winding morning glory vines and blossoms, which has an ethereal, almost transparent quality. These vines represent the themes of resilience, memory and the tenacious connections that weave through life. The controlled atmospheric background of cool blues and white highlights the woman’s central presence, suggesting that despite the relentless passage of time (represented by the fleeting morning glories), her essence remains firmly rooted through her caretaking of her inner garden.
