$589.00
❤️ About the Artwork
This original oil painting portrays a deeply emotional metaphor for Alzheimer’s.
A lone doorway opens toward a bright, dreamlike ocean—symbolizing the fragile line between fading memories and the moments that still shine through. Around it, soft pastel waves and drifting sand represent the fragments of recollection that come and go.
Yet the light remains.
The shore remains.
The love remains.
Even as memories dissolve like grains of sand, the presence of someone dear becomes the painting that time cannot erase.
This artwork was created to comfort, to honor, and to hold space for anyone touched by memory loss—patients, caregivers, families, and loved ones.
