Drifting Between Tides

This painting was born in a time of heavy political atmosphere—that specific, exhausting tension of living just before the storm breaks. When the pressure outside becomes overwhelming, something in us turns inward, searching for what is still intact, still worth protecting. Drifting Between Tides holds that moment: the pale, open blue is not peace exactly, but the act of choosing to concentrate on light. The small figures drifting through the vast, luminous space are not lost — they are holding on, quietly, to something the eye can barely see. It is a painting about inner resistance. About keeping my bearings when everything around us shifts. Medium: Acrylic and oil pastels on canvas Size: 50x50 cm (20x20 inches) 2 cm deep Unframed. Ready to hang. The sides are painted.
