What started as a contemporary somewhat abstract painting, which included an arm extending out of the clouds, “Reach” has evolved into a portrait with an aim to encourage perspective when faced with a challenge. The need for its evolution was strongly dictated by my thoughts on the desired outcome for life’s challenges. It can be a challenge in itself to face those challenges; it is feat to overcome them. If we allow ourselves to be tortured we leave room for defeat, move forward with determination, pride and courage there is no defeat; only a new challenge.
