‘Glacier’ was inspired by the breathtaking beauty of arctic waters and ice. It’s a sight that captivates me every time I see it in photos, and it led me on a creative journey of self-exploration.

The painting itself is an abstract interpretation of my experience, with a multitude of blues and whites swirling together in hypnotic patterns. Through it, I sought to capture the ethereal beauty of the Arctic world and share its calming effect with others.

As I worked, I thought about the fragility of nature and how quickly it can change without warning. The icy hues invoke feelings of tranquility and peace, but beneath this lies hidden depths that are discovered upon closer inspection. The darker blues represent cold darkness lurking beneath the surface, a reminder that danger can lurk even in the most beautiful places. Moving further into the painting reveals lighter shades, symbolizing hope and new beginnings - a reminder that no matter how daunting or difficult things may seem, there is always something to be hopeful for in life.

The painting serves as a celebration of both nature's beauty and complexity. It captures those moments when one pauses to take in the wonders around them - when one realizes just how small they are in comparison to what lies beyond - and reminds us all that there is still much to learn from our environment.
