If I fly too high in the sky,
Or zoom too fast for your eyes,
I would fail at my duty,
To gently awaken humanity

Late spring at Yellowstone National Park, where winter still lingers along the shoreline. Snow-dusted pines frame a quiet lake as ice slowly gives way to open water.

My breath turns honest,
each exhale a quiet surrender.
Footsteps soften into snowlight,
and even memory learns how to rest.
Here, the world asks nothing of me—
not speed, not certainty, not proof.
Only this moment, rinsed clean,
where weight forgets its own name
and silence feels like grace.

Created this painting from a reference in class (reference unknown). It’s one of the few oil paintings I’ve made so far. After seeing so many beautiful landscape pieces on BS, I wanted to share mine as well 🖼️ 🏞️.

Joshua Tree National Park
Standing in the open quiet, the breath settles.
The land widens something inside you.
Every line of rock and sky asks you to slow down.
Beauty arrives the moment you finally let yourself take it in.

Still Waters
The seeds of the future have already been planted. This is a gestational period. Escape the constant barrage of stimuli and noise. Nurture your seeds within a space of protection so they can spring into being.
