At the beginning of the rainy season, tourists and locals alike gather to watch the turtles make their nests in the sand and make their way back to the ocean. It always leaves me with the thoughts of hope. The mother leaves in hopes that her children will find her within the vast expanse of the blue Caribbean waters. This acrylic painting was done to convey the unwavering hope that these majestic animals have trusting their children will make it through the various obstacles back home. I hope that these brushstrokes will join and create a piece that inspires hope in the hearts of those who have hope deferred.

Within The Blue
“Within the Blue” testifies of the enduring cycle of life and the profound beauty of the maternal instinct of turtles in the wild. Each rainy season, turtles travel thousands of miles to return to their birthplace of the Caribbean shores to lay their eggs. It’s a powerful symbol of trust and resilience.
