Gaze deeply into this watercolour jar, noticing how countless tiny stars shimmer and gleam within the ethereal, soft washes of colour.
It’s a universe captured in pigment and water. This piece delves into a tender metaphor: like this painted jar, we each hold entire, complex galaxies within our souls – vast landscapes of potential, swirling nebulas of dreams, and shimmering stardust gathered from experiences.
The Unreadable Label We Carry
Yet, often we remain beautifully, perhaps frustratingly, unaware of the unique inscription written upon our own label.
We cannot always clearly perceive or measure the full breadth and depth of our own inner contents – the resilience, the creativity, the enduring light and intricate darkness we carry within.
Seeing Starlight Through Others’ Eyes
It is frequently through the loving or appreciative eyes of others that our true, complex nature is most clearly reflected back to us.
They read the label we cannot easily see; they admire the dazzling inner constellations we overlook in ourselves. Consider this artwork a quiet, gentle celebration of that magnificent inner universe you possess.
Let it serve as a poignant reminder that your inherent light shines with undeniable brilliance, even, and perhaps especially, when it feels hidden from your own immediate view.
