Stubborn sunbeams.
Rebellious hope.
Every day afresh.

That's what the sunbeams of my new artwork "Breakthrough" seem to me as they're making their way powerfully through the clouds: stubborn & rebellious.
Being stubborn as a good thing in tough times. Maybe flexibly stubborn, but stubborn nonetheless. No rotten compromise, no making yourself small, no listening to those who always knew it wouldn't work. Being yourself. Believing. Hoping. Breathing.

And then the breakthrough. Maybe rather breakthroughs. There will likely be so many small breakthroughs, we almost miss them. Do we see a single sunbeam? Unlikely. And wouldn't that mean that we also need to take a step back and look at the big picture to see our breakthroughs?
Maybe later, looking at photos. Have you noticed how sometimes we only see that a moment was a real game changer after some time has passed?
This is me encouraging you to take more photos. Maybe you don't see it yet, but some day you'll say: Wow! That was my breakthrough!
I think celebrating later is just as good.

The smallest piece in the series with the title "New Dawn" is also centered around the sun as a symbol for breakthroughs and hope.
It is calm and tidy and radiates a certain assurance and assertiveness despite - or maybe because of - its childlike symbolism.
Maybe that's what I find so fascinating about this artwork and what makes for a great finish:
Coming home to a childlike belief. Being completely convinced of something as we were as children. I find that very desirable and a great treasure. A new dawn.

Thank you for your time, dear reader, from the bottom of my heart.
With four blog posts I introduced you to all five new pieces of the series INTO THE LIGHT. I showed you sneak peeks of the artwork and had a lof of fun and aha-moments myself.
Are you excited to find out what the pieces look like in full?
The paintings are available on my website starting July 2025.
If you want more information, a video or more photos, do not hesitate to reach out.
✨ This is my wish for you:
That you continue walking "into the light" - even if it is dark at the moment.
That you trust your inner light.
And that you never forget that the sun will rise again. Always.
My new series INTO THE LIGHT is for everyone who needs extra light on their path right now, for the one who walks stubbornly and with love, while not ignoring their inner guidepost, because they decide to allow themselves to heal every single day.
My series is for you!
