“You do not find a happy life. You make it.” I heard this quote in a podcast, and it stuck with me while painting this piece. We can search and wait for happiness, or we can do something each day to welcome happiness in. Do more of what makes you happy. It sounds simple, right? But each day, we have the opportunity to choose how to use our time, even a small amount of it, to pursue our own personal happiness.

This piece is finished with a gloss varnish to protect the painting and preserve its vibrancy. Cradled wood panels arrive ready to hang, or can be positioned and displayed on a shelf. Buyers may add any additional hanging hardware that they prefer.

The painting will arrive signed and dated, along with a certificate of authenticity.
