Seeds of hope have a powerful effect on the soul. When the injustice and negativity can easily flood the mind with their poison, hope can always be found as a powerful antidote. As people take to the streets in 2025 standing up for the rights of minorities, the power of science, and the rule of law it has me feeling that hope is not lost, but very much at work.

This framed original watercolor & ink painting is mounted on archival museum mounting board using archival water activated linen hinging tape. 1/8” spacers are placed between the glass and the art protecting it from direct contact with the glass and allowing for the full deckled edge of the paper to show. This highlights the beauty of the handmade watercolor paper.

The back is titled, signed and dated. It also displays a quote that pairs with the painting:

“Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.” -Rumi
