The Quiet Fight

Not every fight is loud. The Quiet Fight gathers paintings about courage that happens inside — daring to try, refusing to give up, and getting up again when no one is watching.

At least I tried is about the courage to reach for the unknown. I am not falling, I am dancing is breaking out through movement, I am not as small as I look is small defiance in great darkness, and You suffocated me. You hit me. But my heart still beats. is about what could not be broken.

A painting from this series can be a strong gift for someone in the middle of their own fight. Each one has its own page with the story behind it; some are also available as canvas prints.
