A Story Captured in Colour — “When Roots Meet Fire”
This piece is more than a painting; it is a chapter of my life preserved in oil and emotion. Created during one of the most challenging periods I’ve ever faced, it holds the weight of depression, heartbreak, and isolation — yet from that darkness emerged something unexpected: clarity, colour, and a quiet strength.
Every layer reflects a moment of reckoning. Every blend of light and shadow represents a choice to keep going. Through creating this work, I learned forgiveness, understanding, and resilience — and the painting became a symbol of transformation.
For anyone who has walked through their own fire and found a way to rise again, this piece may speak to you in the same way it spoke to me while it came to life.
