Description

This is a print of an oil painting. It is a limited edition of 50 and will come as a signed giclee print. It is 8 x 12 inches including the border which will have the signature, title and number.
Here is some writing that accompanies the print:
"Life’s Purpose." A artist stands on a ladder, painting away a previous painting of a beautiful woman he'd created. He’s using bright red paint, which is striking and stands out against everything else.
The red paint symbolises a fresh start. It shows that he’s ready to move on from one phase of his life, and instead of just staying put after reaching a goal, he’s taking the leap to explore new beginnings. It’s about growth and discovery, and the determination to not just settle for what’s already been achieved. In this case, his masterpiece.
The ladder represents his progress and the hard work he’s put in to reach where he is now. He’s already going beyond his initial reach. Each rung shows the steps he’s taken along the way, reminding us that life is all about climbing higher and not being afraid to look ahead.
You’ll also notice a dog watching him closely. That dog symbolises the curiosity we all have when we see someone else on their journey. It’s like that friendly reminder that while we’re focused on our own path, others are observing, learning, and maybe even finding inspiration in what we do.
And then there are two cans of red paint with paint spilt on the floor. This spilled paint represents mistakes and setbacks along the way. It’s a reminder that we all stumble sometimes, but those spills are part of the journey too. They help shape who we are and what we become.
Lastly, in the wall, there is a window. The window offers layers and depth to our journey.
“Life’s Purpose" is really about embracing change, celebrating progress, and understanding that every ending can lead to a beautiful new beginning. I hope when people look at this painting, they can see a little bit of their own story in it and feel inspired to keep moving forward.
