Original 48×60” oil painting on canvas. Artwork includes French blue painted edges.
THE LIGHT IN MY CHEST’ IS DIFFERENT FOR EVERY PERSON. SOMETIMES IT IS THE MEMORY OF A LOVED ONE, SOMETIMES A PHRASE WE NEVER FORGOT, SOMETIMES THE SHAPE OF A LANDSCAPE THAT TAUGHT US HOW TO BREATHE AGAIN. WHEN I LOOK AT THIS IMAGE, I SEE WHAT SHINES THROUGH A PERSON, THE PARTS OF US THAT CANNOT HELP BUT GLOW EVEN WHEN WE THINK THEY HAVE DIMMED. I SEE A FIELD IN FULL ABUNDANCE, OVERFILLED WITH COLOR AND MOVEMENT, A LIVING REMINDER
THAT WHAT IS MEANINGFUL ALWAYS FINDS ITS WAY BACK. THE UNDERPAINTING, A BRIGHT YELLOW TONE, GLOWS BETWEEN THE BLADES OF GRASS AND THE PETALS OF EACH FLOWER, ILLUMINATING THE TREE LINE AND THE DETAILS THAT HOLD THE STORY. ‘THE LIGHT IN MY CHEST’ IS WHO HAS WEATHERED EVERY SEASON OF THEIR LIFE AND COME OUT FULLER. I SEE THE WAY STRENGTH CAN STILL HOLD SOFTNESS and HOW BRAVERY CAN STILL be colorful, HOW A HEART CAN BREAK AND BLOOM all IN THE SAME BREATH. THE TITLE SPEAKS TO THE TRUTH THAT EVEN THE STRONGEST SOULS have SEASONS THAT ASK THEM TO FEEL, TO PAUSE, TO BEGIN AGAIN. At ITS HEART, THIS PIECE HONORS THOSE WHO KEPt GOING, THE ONES WHO CARRY THEIR STORIES, THE ONES WHO HAVE BENT WITHOUT BREAKING. IT IS A REMINDER THAT EVEN IN OUR BLUEST MOMENTS, WE ARE STILL CAPABLE OF BRIGHTNESS, BEAUTY AND A FULL, UNBREAKABLE BLOOM.
