A Declaration of Hope

"Evoking a quiet but bold, intentional declaration - not that life is easy, but despite it, that hope is chosen anyway.

This artwork speaks of the tension between struggle and surrender, where the weight of the world presses in, yet something within refuses to dim.

I choose faith here. Not blind, but hard fought.

A decision to trust in light, even when shadows are closing in.

The movement across the canvas echoes persistence...of holding on, standing ground, and choosing warmth, beauty, and love in defiance of all that seeks to unravel us.

This is not a fragile hope...

It is a bold one.

A lived one.

A declared one."

Created with palette knives on high grade stretched cotton canvas and framed in solid Tasmanian Oak, this beautifully bold artwork is satin varnished. It comes with a COA with the above artist statement written on the back.

Thank you for pausing to view my work.

NB: While every effort is made to capture the true colours and details of my artwork, every screen is different and art viewed online does not do my work justice. Slight differences may be evident between a screen image and the true tone and textures of my work, which can be more vivid and beautiful in reality. Scale may also be slightly off due to the insitu art app used, so please ensure you measure your space.
