River of Hope Painting

$50

FMV $300

Life rarely moves in straight lines.
River of Hope is a reflection of the winding paths we travel as we navigate uncertainty, healing, and transformation.
The flowing ribbons of crimson, ivory, blush, and warm earth tones represent the seasons of the human spirit, moments of fear, courage, surrender, love, and ultimately renewal.
Each textured stroke was intentionally layered to remind us that healing is never smooth; it is built one day, one breath, one step at a time.
The gold leaf symbolizes the beauty that emerges after adversity. Rather than concealing life's fractures, it honors them, echoing the belief that our deepest struggles can become the source of our greatest strength and compassion.
As a breast cancer survivor, this work carries a deeply personal meaning. It is a visual expression of faith, resilience, and gratitude for the people who become our light during life's most difficult chapters. It serves as a reminder that hope is not the absence of hardship; it is the courage to keep moving forward despite it.
This original painting has been created especially to support the American Cancer Society. May this piece remind every viewer that even the most winding journey can lead to extraordinary beauty. Painting is 20"w & 24"h.

Sherry Lee is a self-taught California artist whose colorful gouache and watercolor paintings celebrate florals, plants, buildings, and food.

The artwork is housed in a beautiful handmade frame from Signed & Numbered, a Salt Lake City creative business founded by Phil and Leia. What began with Phil's woodworking and a garage shop eventually grew into a poster shop, gallery, and custom framing business. Their story even has a little music-industry magic: before focusing on framing, Phil operated the legendary Kilby Court music venue, which hosted bands including The Shins, Death Cab for Cutie, and Rilo Kiley.
Package includes:

Sherry Lou Studio postcard triptych
Custom handmade frame by Signed & Numbered. Frame is 18.5 x 10"
