Despair, negative thoughts, and worry often cripple our energy, and our will to succeed. A pine seedling can either view the rock that it is perched on as an indestructible force that is working against it, or take a bold step and set down the first root of discovery. As time passes, all will work out as it should when we handle our obstacles with inner strength.

This collector piece is one out of a growing edition that I started creating in 2016. You will notice that the edition number and the artist’s signature is engraved on the back of the kayak, so as more pieces are created in the Kayak Series in the future, the lower edition numbers will translate to an increase in value with the passage of time.
