COBBLESTONE

Acrylic on canvas, 16 x 16 IN.

 No matter how well laid your plans, the path is always gonna be a little bumpy so just keep going. We learn with each stretch of unsteady step to do better, if we’re lucky… and, sometimes, if only to learn what doesn’t work for us. But, like cobblestones, getting knocked around a bit or resting within a current, each experience smooths out our rough edges and brings us closer to the form we’re meant to be. No matter where we’re at in our journey, we’re perfect and beautiful just the way we are so just keep going.

This piece is about the paths taken and not taken, the roads we build and those we traverse. It’s about our choices and keeping at it. As Robert Frost said, “Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — I took the one less traveled by. And that has made all the difference.”
