During the time I created Do Not Give Up, my heart was heavy, tangled in personal struggles that felt overwhelming. Yet, painting has always been my sanctuary, a door into something greater than myself. When I began, there was no plan, no guiding lines—just an urgent need to paint, to release, to reconnect with the source that nurtures all things. What flowed onto the canvas started as abstract shapes, but soon it transformed into something more, as if the act of painting itself was gently guiding me. As the colors and forms unfolded, I felt a shift—a quiet integration of my inner world with the external, a release that made everything else fade away.
In that flow, my worries dissolved. Painting, once again, became my salvation. Do Not Give Up is more than just creation; it’s an offering, a reminder to surrender to life’s flow, to persist, and to reconnect with the strength that carries us through.
