Trust the Process

90 x 100 cm original mixed media painting with oil paint and silver leaf.

Trust. Blindly. Even when it seems like there is no road left. Trust. Take that step. Even when you can’t see your footing.

Trust. Let go.  Even when clinging is all you ever knew. Trust. The unknown. Life will unfold in unexpected ways. 

Trust. Trust the process. I did.

This painting is about blind trust in a future you can’t see yet. The moment I lost everything, I chose to surrender. I let go of the idea of what my future was supposed to look like, and slowly, a new life began to unfold. A more colorful, authentic, and better life.

‘Trust the Process’ symbolizes the contrast of vibrant color against the black background. Some areas even reveal raw canvas, emphasizing how unpolished life is. The painting is filled with details—tiny dots of joy within the bigger picture.

The materials used are: charcoal with spray paint and loose paint pigments, followed by acrylic paint, 3D paint, markers, ink, and genuine silver leaf. It is then finished with several layers of oil paint. The painting is protected with a UV-protection varnish.

‘Trust the Process’ comes with a light wooden floating frame. This painting is archivable, meaning it will retain its quality for at least 100 years. I only use A-grade materials, which contributes to the durability of the work.
