Painting a Story, One Chapter at a Time
Over the coming months, my work will unfold in a new way — as a story told in chapters. Each art series will now form a Chapter in the life of a woman named Evangeline — a character I believe many of us, including myself, will recognise. This is an ongoing narrative of beauty, restraint, longing, and quiet transformation. It will unfold like a novel: chapter by chapter, page by page, post by post. Each Chapter will contain its own collection of paintings, just as my series always have — but now, beneath the brushstrokes, a deeper story begins. The first Chapter is called The Turning Point.
🕊 Who is Evangeline?
Evangeline is a woman standing at the edge of a life that looks perfect — on paper.
She has the home, the relationship, the career, the polished exterior. She’s a high-achieving strategist in a world that rewards control, competence, and keeping things in order. From the outside, it’s all working. But on the inside, something is quietly unravelling.
Conversations feel hollow. Her work, once thrilling, now feels performative. The life she built so carefully is starting to feel like a costume that no longer fits.
She doesn’t know exactly what’s next — but she knows this isn’t it.
There’s a longing she can’t ignore anymore. A sense that something deeper, truer, more beautiful is calling.
It’s not about escaping. It’s about remembering.
It’s about becoming.
It’s about finally listening to the quiet voice within — the one that’s been whispering: there’s more to life than this.
This is her ‘turning point’.
