Morning Glory

30x40" acrylic by Kyle Trudelle

A young woman steps forward along a sunlit coastal path, moving toward the open horizon where sea and sky meet in radiant light. The stone beneath her feet reflects a journey shaped by endurance, while the flowering pots that line her path symbolize growth cultivated even within limitation—life nurtured through proximity to opportunity. She does not look back. This work explores the threshold between past and future. The moment where identity shifts from survival to becoming. Rooted in my own story of redemption, the piece reflects how broken beginnings can be transformed into a foundation for growth, purpose, and renewed direction. It is a visual meditation on stepping into the light where healing, opportunity, and new life.
