This 10 x 8 inch NuPastel work on black cold press watercolor paper centers on a sealed lilac envelope—an object that holds presence without delivery. The letter inside exists, but remains contained, honoring both truth and restraint.
Angelwing begonia leaves extend across and beyond the envelope, rendered in rich greens, vibrant magentas, and quiet highlights. The plant overlaps what is held back, suggesting how memory, care, and unfinished feeling often refuse clear boundaries. What once grew continues to reach, even after the decision to close a door.
This piece reflects a necessary ending, one chosen not because it was easy, but because it was right. The letter remains unread, not out of absence, but out of intention. It is an act of private closure, allowing what needed to be said to exist without being asked to change anything.
Some goodbyes are not meant to be witnessed. They are simply meant to be made.
