The True Value of Love

This work moves in the space between the seen and the felt—between figurative presence and symbolic depth.
My visual language draws from a reduced palette, precise lines, and a quiet, poetic rhythm. I work with recurring symbols from nature, mythology, and the human form—echoes of something older than words.

In this piece, I explore the question: What does love truly mean—and what might we have lost along the way?

Two doves—symbols of love, loyalty, and peace—circle through a sky tinted with softness. They are held not by force, but by a ribbon, itself tied to an ancient bow. Above them hovers a canopy, evoking the idea of sacred protection, of reverence, of something once held as holy.

The composition recalls a time when love was connected to ritual and meaning. It speaks of sincerity, devotion, gentleness—qualities once naturally woven into the fabric of love, but which now risk being overshadowed by urgency, distraction, and the fear of vulnerability.

This painting is not meant to be simply romantic. It is a quiet call—an invitation to remember.
To remember that love, in its truest form, asks for presence.
And that perhaps, somewhere within us, we still recognize its depth.
