In my painting, "The Veil of Thought," I invite viewers into a serene landscape that embodies the tranquility I discovered during my journey towards self-acceptance. As part of my "Coming Home" series, this piece represents a pivotal moment in my life when I found solace through meditation, amidst the challenges of living with borderline personality disorder.

 

Thought can often cloud our judgments of ourselves and others, but if we take the time to sit quietly, we can recognize that behind that veil of thought lies pure love and acceptance—for ourselves and for all. The bench in the foreground serves as an invitation to pause, breathe, and embrace self-love. It symbolizes the importance of taking time for ourselves to appreciate the beauty of our lives. 

 

I hope this painting encourages you to sit, reflect, and reconnect with your own journey, reminding you that self-care is a conscious choice worth making.
