“The One”

5ftx8ft acrylic commission

Commissioned as a wedding anniversary gift, this piece merges two powerful forces—Lady Justice and Mother Nature—as a tribute to love, balance, and the life Darren and Laura have built together. Rooted in law and flourishing in nature, the figure holds the golden scales with strength and serenity, surrounded by over forty symbolic elements. Each bird carries significance, representing their children, while the dogwoods, trout, and wildflowers echo the couple’s deep connection to the natural world. A celebration of harmony, devotion, and the quiet power of legacy, this painting is as much a portrait of their values as it is a work of art.
