Embracing Winter

16 x 20 inch Mixed Media Oil Painting. With UV resistant Varnish on Gallery Wrapped Canvas.

Painting Story: The melting ice symbolizes the tenderness that returns when we let love in. When we yield to God’s process—even the uncomfortable parts—we are made whole.

This painting is about embracing the layers of becoming.

The seasons we walk through.

The doubt we press through.

The grace we discover.

"You’re sunlight.

And I’m becoming a pool

where I once was a glacier."

Winter isn’t punishment. It isn’t a sign of failure or lack. It’s a season—a sacred pause meant for clearing, resting, and preparing for the new.
