“Inspired by a challenging 23-kilometer trek into the mountains, this piece captures a moment of quiet, unexpected reassurance.
At the very start of the trail, a tiny bird appeared—walking ahead, stopping to look back, and checking to ensure I was following. The moment I reached for my phone to document it, the bird vanished, as if to say this message was just for you.
Though the bird is intentionally left out of the painting, the path remains set before me, beneath a sky that felt like looking up into a vast blue ocean.”
