Celestial tides| Still beauty. Why I chose these two originals

It took me a moment to decide on the paintings I wanted to include in a bundle. Then, I reflected on the pieces that stood out over the past year. These were the paintings that blended magic and emotion, fitting into an ethereal blue seascape of escape, and held significance for me as I created them.

"Celestial Tides" was painted last winter during a period when I was seeking direction in my life. I was contemplating where I wanted to go and what I envisioned for my future. At the time, I was engaged in an exhausting job that left me drained. I developed a magical style that I wanted to pursue, utilizing blues and silvers to depict a fantastical, enchanting world. "Celestial Tides" emerged from this—a place of wonder where I can reflect on my journey.

"Still Beauty" was part of my earlier collection "Winter Night." It began with a photo that captured my attention. This year has been politically exhausting. I started with hope, but the online world became harsh and filled with hatred, with people constantly clashing. This seemed to overshadow the beauty we still possess. Thus, I painted "Still Beauty" to convey the idea of discovering beauty even when darkness appears to spread everywhere.

The "Light Always Shines Through" print bundle offers more than just artwork. It's designed to aid in healing during difficult periods, illuminating your home and serving as a reminder that there's always something to look forward to, even when it seems there

isn't.
