Theme: Quiet Hope
From the Surrey Sanctuaries collectionA Sparkle of Hope
2025 - Watercolour on paper - Approx. 22 x 15 inches, original watercolour on Saunders Waterford 100% cotton paper.
A Sparkle of Hope rests in the meeting of water and light. It is a gentle reminder that hope does not always arrive loudly; sometimes it appears as a glimmer, enough to keep going.
The moment behind this painting
Painted after time beside the water at Buckland Lakes near Reigate in Surrey. The small brightness on the surface stayed with me, and the painting became a way to hold that feeling of refuge and quiet hope.
