“Where the Light Leads”
Original Oil Pastel by Ms Bella St John
Inspired by the history of her beloved Scotland and symbolic of perseverance, memory, and new beginnings, an old cobbled path invites the traveler forward. Stone, moss, and small wildflowers suggest hands that once shaped the land, while the woodland keeps a kindly watch.
In this oil pastel landscape, warm ochre light pools across weathered stones, their edges softened by time and rain. Dappled greens rise on either side, a low wall steadies the left, and the way bends into a clearing where sunbeams open the canopy.
“Where the Light Leads” is a quiet invitation to take the next step. A celebration of warmth, resilience, and calm assurance, it reminds us that the path grows brighter as we walk.
