Steady Toward the Good

11"x14" on reclaimed canvas

Steady Toward the Good is a tribute to patience, devotion, and the quiet discipline required to build a meaningful life. Painted on canvas with deliberate texture and grounded color, this piece honors the snail as a symbol of slow, honest progress — the kind that isn’t rushed, performed, or forced.

The snail moves with purpose, not speed. It works steadily, carrying its world with it, trusting that the path will reward its persistence. This painting reflects that same truth in us: that the good life is not stumbled into, but earned through small, consistent acts of effort and faith.

Steady Toward the Good is a reminder that going slowly is not a weakness. It is a strategy. A wisdom. A way of choosing what matters and moving toward it with unwavering intention. The reward comes not from haste, but from the courage to keep going, one quiet inch at a time.
