Sometimes clarity hits like lightning—sharp, sudden, blindingly bright.
Other times, it creeps in quietly, softly, whispering neon colors behind your eyelids until you finally see.

This painting is called “Vision” because that’s exactly what it felt like to create. Each bold shape, each vibrant layer of color, each electric line was me reaching out into the dark, pulling back the curtains, and daring to see something new.

We tend to think of vision as simple—something physical, something obvious—but true vision is deeper. It’s internal. It’s how we perceive ourselves, each other, the world. It’s the courage to see past our old stories, beyond our limiting beliefs, straight into the bright, sometimes intimidating, future we’re meant to embrace.

The brightness here is deliberate. It’s unapologetic. It says, “Hey! Look! There’s something big happening here, something real and raw and beautiful. Don’t miss it.” And isn’t that what life’s about—learning to keep our eyes (and hearts) open, even when it’s easier to look away?

I painted “Vision” as a reminder that clarity isn’t always comfortable. But man, when you finally let your eyes adjust—when you let yourself see what you’ve always felt but were afraid to acknowledge—everything transforms. Life turns vibrant. Possibility blooms in technicolor.

If you’re staring at this piece right now, consider it your sign: trust what you see. Even if no one else sees it yet. Your vision is your gift—bright, beautiful, and completely yours. Don’t dim it for anyone.

Shine on.
