🕊 The First Ascent: A Sacred Moment Between Souls
In painting “The First Ascent”, I found myself reaching for a feeling more than an image: the sacred presence that arises when two souls meet without words. The horse’s bowed head and the woman’s closed eyes mirror a silent prayer—not for answers, but for connection. Through this, I am reminded that the Divine often looks like a quiet breath shared in companionship, an invisible thread spun from love and the yearning to ascend.
