The Path Forward - New Moon

Not everything works out as planned. These are the moments where we get to choose our futures - take the path that is easy and simple: react childishly, get angry, withdraw. Or take the path that hurts more: feel the pain, feel the hurt, the sadness, and allow yourself to mend. Find the beauty in what has happened and find your path forward. Maybe it's not a simple path, but it's the path laid in front of you. Find the beauty in it or allow yourself to drown.
 
Original New Moon painting by Isla Jiang 'The Path Forward’ 2021
24x24" canvas - unframed
 
Part of the Celestial Collection, this piece is an expression of a moment in time and the desire to hold onto each passing moment. It shows the need to be present and feel every moment of joy and peace as we rest in the here and now without worry for the past or the future. Layers of transparent pigment reveal the depth of the deep blue color in calming, free strokes across the canvas.
