"Teach by Timeless Example"
18x24 inches | Oil on Canvas | By Award-Winning Artist Shakia Harris
This painting delicately weaves a narrative of grace, wisdom, and enduring beauty through its portrayal of purple and white roses. The blooms, each one rendered with exquisite detail, seem to hold a quiet, profound lesson in their petals. The purple roses, rich in hue, symbolize dignity, wisdom, and respect, while the white roses, pristine and elegant, represent purity, innocence, and the power of example. Together, they speak of teaching through action, of guiding others not with words alone but through the quiet force of one’s presence and choices.
The roses are arranged in a way that feels both spontaneous and intentional, as if they have been placed with care but also allowed to fall into their natural rhythm. Soft, almost ethereal brushstrokes give the flowers a delicate, luminous quality, as if each petal is touched by the glow of a timeless truth. The purple and white tones gently blend into one another, symbolizing the harmony between knowledge and virtue, between strength and gentleness. The subtle play of light and shadow across the petals conveys depth, as though these flowers hold layers of wisdom beyond their surface beauty.
