This is an original painting in acrylic and ink on reclaimed canvas. The painting shows a female face at the edge of the canvas. She’s holding her breath under a sea of color. Her hair is red and yellow flames of fire that never extinguish. Even though black and turquoise water rush over her, she will resurface.

Painting size: 7 x 5 inches

‘Let the River Wash Over Me’ is an inspired painting from the song ‘I’m Ready’ by Tracy Chapman. The following lyrics from the song are what inspired the painting.

‘I want to wake up and know where I’m going
Say I’m ready
I want to go where the rivers are overflowing and
I’ll be ready
I’ll be ready
I’m ready to let the rivers wash over me

If the waters can redeem me
I’m ready
I’m ready to let the rivers wash over me

Save a place for me
Save a space for me
in your heart
