“Still We Sail”. 36”x36” acrylic on wrapped canvas. This piece explores the quiet resilience it takes to keep moving forward when the waters are uncertain. The sails lean into the wind, not against it, finding their way through motion and resistance alike. There is no promise of calm—only the decision to continue.
In a world that often feels unsettled, this painting is a reflection of endurance, hope, and the steady courage to go on. All works are available for purchase. Will ship. DM for more info.
