Ready
30 x 40 inch, Mixed Media/Oil Original on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
Ready is a dreamscape meditation on spiritual vigilance, faith, and the quiet expectancy of transformation. Inspired by the Parable of the Ten Virgins, the work explores the sacred discipline of tending the inner flame—remaining awake, intentional, and receptive through seasons of uncertainty.
A solitary figure moves through a symbolic landscape of light and shadow, where pathways, thresholds, and fragments of scripture become invitations toward awakening and divine encounter. Through layered imagery and atmospheric illumination, Ready reflects the universal journey of preparing the heart for grace, purpose, and the unexpected moments when transformation arrives.
The painting asks a timeless question: What does it mean to remain ready—not through fear or striving, but through faith, awareness, and an open heart?
