Deny the Deep | Fine Art Print red even when everything says you

even when everything says you should

This is the kind of survival that brushes ash from her sleeves and sings a soft lullaby to the past

Some wishes you whisper into the dark

and whisking together the coziest batch of warm magic

This is the shallow breath before the cracks begin to spread

Deny the Deep | Fine Art Print red even when everything says youA woman floats in a stormy sea, hand reaching toward the sky, expression unreadable. Her dress, ill fitting armor, weighs her down. She is composed but hauntingly still. Deny the Deep is a portrait of quiet unraveling, the moment just before awakening, when the surface is still in sight, but the depthless dark beckons. Painted at a personal breaking point, this was the first oil piece in a series that became my way back to myself. Soundtrack: Smoky
