Sea Turtle - Greeting Card

$10.00
This painting grew out of a period when I found myself drawn to turtles in many forms. What started as collecting small objects and references slowly turned into the urge to paint one, to explore that connection more deeply through my own work.
As I worked, a close friend suggested that the turtle might be my totem. That idea stayed with me throughout the process. The sense of steadiness, patience, and quiet strength associated with the turtle felt meaningful, especially as I allowed the painting to unfold without forcing it.
This piece is both personal and intuitive. It reflects a feeling of protection and endurance, moving calmly through deep water while carrying its world along. I hope that sense of balance and quiet confidence comes through to anyone who spends time with the painting.
