Let Us Dance (8.5x11 PRINT)

“We did not ask for this room or this music. We were invited in. Therefore, because the dark surrounds us, let us turn our faces to the light. Let us endure hardship to be grateful for plenty. We have been given pain to be astounded by joy. We have been given life to deny death. We did not ask for this room or this music. But because we are here, let us dance.”

-Stephen King, 11/22/63

This is one of my favorite quotes that inspired me to create a painting depicting these words. “Let Us Dance” celebrates resilience, gratitude, and the beauty of simply being alive. A silhouetted figure twirls before a radiant sunset, her movement reflecting both surrender and strength — a visual reminder to face life’s darkness by turning toward the light.

Bathed in fiery reds, golds, and soft ocean hues, this piece captures a moment of grace amid the storm. Let Us Dance speaks to the soul that endures, finds joy, and chooses to move with life’s rhythm no matter how uncertain the song.
