A River's Course" Original Mixed Media 24K Gold 30x30 Canvas

Light slides across the river’s surface
as if the day itself is learning
how to let go.
The water carries old colors,
that once belonged to another season of you.

You have come here carrying questions,
though you pretend you have not.
The river knows this.

The river does not demand courage.
It only asks that you notice
how everything living
eventually learns to move.

Stand here a moment longer.
Let the water take what it knows how to hold.
Let yourself keep
the part of you that learned how to stay open

after everything tried to close you.

Meaning behind the painting: Life is an unfolding process and a journey, not just a series of endpoints or achievements. Growth is found in the flow itself. The river's course teaches that life is dynamic, requiring us to embrace change, navigate both turbulent and calm waters with resilience, and trust in the natural flow that guides our continuous evolution and growth.
