🖌️ Description:
“Still Sailing” is a serene and poetic diptych that captures the quiet momentum of a journey in stillness. The two panels unfold like pages of a meditative story — a sailboat frozen in time, gliding silently across deep teal waters under the shadow of a quiet forest 🌲🌊.

With gentle motion and minimalist elegance, the piece blurs the line between abstraction and landscape. A bold vertical stripe in ochre-orange ⛱️ cuts through the calm whites and deep greens, like the sun breaking through overcast skies — a symbol of hope, direction, and focus.

🎨 Color Palette & Visual Elements:
Teal & oceanic blues 🌊 – the still water, calm yet full of depth.

Creamy whites & soft grays 🌫️ – the sails, light, and breath of the scene.

Muted forest greens 🌿 – abstract foliage, soft and distant.

Golden ochre stripe 🌞 – the heart of the painting, warm and grounding.

Subtle motion blur – conveys movement in stillness, like a memory or a dream.

🧠 Mood & Emotion:
This artwork evokes calm, introspection, and gentle movement. It’s about being in the present moment while still moving forward — emotionally, mentally, spiritually. A perfect visual metaphor for the quiet strength of resilience and inner peace.
