Hopeful Unfolding 2024 8

8 " x 8 " oil painting on stretched canvas, a study of a
beautiful rose


in this challenging time of uncertainty, the roses are speaking
to us when we stop and listen
Our deep listen eyes can hear when we pause and are still
they are offering us courage through their fragile beauty and
gentle unfolding

painted on my front porch in this time of physical distancing,
with primary oil paints ( red, blue, yellow ) and white,
mixing the colors on location
