This 16"x20" Oils, Acrylics on Canvas painting by Stephen Stocklin features a soft, organic composition with a dark diagonal river-like form flowing through fields of dusty rose, warm beige, olive-green, and coral pink. The charcoal-black mark meanders from upper left to lower left, creating a natural division through the layered, atmospheric washes. White highlights and textured brushwork suggest erosion or the passage of time, while small gestural marks in yellow and burgundy add punctuation to the gentle color field. The overall effect is landscape-like yet abstract, with edges that feel soft and weathered.
The painting evokes the journey through emotional terrain—how a single path of experience cuts through the varied landscapes of our inner life, touching different zones of feeling as it flows. The dark channel suggests both wound and waterway, a reminder that what carves through us can also connect and carry us forward, integrating all the colors of our experience into one continuous passage.
