Named/painted from a poem by Wendell Berry (see images.)

A note from the artist:
"This painting feels prehistoric, but it is a real scene from my home. It is wild and untamed, and where the crossroads of sea and fresh water merge, symbolizing a crossroad of sorts for personal growth. The water here is brackish, a natural representation of an uncomfortable, yet beautiful, transition. This painting is a reminder to give yourself grace in the difficult seasons, and to seek beauty that still surrounds you. In some cases, the most beautiful memories are made in the muck.
Where I live, brackish areas are where Dwarf Palmettos not only grow, but flourish. I adore these palms, pictured in my painting, because they thrive in a high-salinity and wet environment, where most palms won't take hold. They are resilient, and remind me to adapt and thrive in that which I cannot control.
I'm blessed to live and paint from my home in coastal Beaufort, SC, where this view is located. The briny air, the shifting hues of the spartina grass, the abundance of immaculate views and the plethora of wildlife easily work their way into my art. I hope you feel every ounce of my beautiful home when you view my work."
