Guardian

Guardian, 2019 Oil on Canvas 41 1/4 × 41 1/4 in | 104.8 × 104.8 cm Guardian is a sepia-toned oil painting on a canvas stained with coffee, rendered in umber and sienna pigments. The palette operates as a monochromatic mantra, drawing viewers into gentle, reflective space.Hand‑painted text across the image reads:“My journey is to gather and reflect on this precious life and come to a place of clarity.
To continue on this path of spiritual exploration with my guardian animal at my side
and move forward to the horizon.”The horse appears not just as a figure, but as a guardian animal—a spiritual companion guiding a journey toward clarity and the horizon. In many traditions, horses symbolize inner strength, vitality, perseverance, and spiritual guidance—qualities woven deeply into this piece.
