The Souls Have Moments Of Escape (2026) Original Watercolour by Marian Gorin

There is a stillness in this forest that feels earned. The birch trees rise tall and unhurried, their silver-black bark rendered in bold, graphic strokes, while above them a canopy of chartreuse and gold unfolds leaf by leaf, luminous, almost weightless.
And there, half-hidden among the roots, a fawn. Small, watchful, perfectly still. A soul that has slipped away from somewhere else and found, just for a moment, exactly where it needs to be.
Inspired by Emily Dickinson's quiet certainty that the soul knows when to rest, this ink and watercolor illustration captures one of those fleeting instants of refuge, when the world grows large and silent around you, and you are briefly, completely free.
