Inspiration
Kipling's wisdom, "If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs..." has been a source of inspiration for me in moments of doubt and uncertainty. In this artwork, I've channeled the strength and resilience these words convey.
In my painting, I've tried to capture the essence of these words, blending colors and brushstrokes to convey the strength and determination that Kipling's poem embodies. Art allows us to explore the depths of emotion and meaning, and this piece is a reflection of the inner strength we all possess.
I hope you find as much meaning in this painting as I did in "If." Art and poetry have the power to inspire and uplift, and it's a true joy to merge these two forms of expression in my work.
Shipping & Packaging
All artworks will ship within 5-7 business days of receiving final payment.
White glove packaging, using only sustainable materials, ensures your artwork is fully protected for shipping and arrives in pristine condition. More details can be found HERE…
Custom Shipping Quote: Large artworks will require a customized shipping quote, due to their size and the variability of rates based on the destination.
Generally, large paintings will be removed from the stretcher bars, carefully rolled, and shipped in a tube. Your painting can then be stretched onto new bars at your local framing shop.
This is done solely for ease in shipping, reducing the risk of potential damage in transit and keeping the shipping costs reasonable. However, “If Only…” is framed in a metal floating frame and cannot be removed from the stretcher bars. It will need to be safely packed in a wood crate for shipment. Please contact me to receive a quote and to make final arrangements.
You will receive a tracking number via email once it has shipped.
Local Pick-Up and Delivery: Local pick-up from my studio, or delivery to an address within 50 km of my studio, is also available. Please get in touch to make arrangements.
