This profound acrylic painting explores the artist's personal journey of surrender and faith. 

Titled "Into The Light," the piece is deliberately painted over a former creation, serving as a visual metaphor for the redemptive act of trading past striving for Christ-centered identity. The artist's signature warm palette uses golds and oranges to symbolically emulate the the Light of the world. 

Technically, the energetic texture of the hair contrasts with the soft modeling of the skin, conveying a spirit set free. The subject's peaceful, contented gaze and the accompanying monarch butterfly affirm that true freedom is found not in chasing, but in surrender and peace.
