There are some moments that become core memories; bursting at the seams with meaning and big feelings. You may not notice it when it's happening, but it sticks. 'EVERYTHING THIS MOMENT HAS TO GIVE' is such a core memory moment.
This piece flowed right out of 'THE "AND" OF IT ALL', and it carries the same heartbeat: that life is rarely just one thing. That even in the softness, there can be ache. Even in the ache, there can be light.
'EVERYTHING THIS MOMENT HAS TO GIVE' is rooted in that same moment — putting my nephew to sleep, his little head on my chest, my heart wide open. There was so much love, but also a sadness. The kind that you feel in your throat and chest when you’re holding something beautiful you know you’ll never have for yourself in quite the same way.
At the center of this piece is that softness, that gentleness. Around it: darker shades, holding the weight of what’s hard. And running through it all, little glimmers of gold — because even in the heaviness, there are golden moments. And they are so valuable.
I hope this painting feels like a gentle nudge to let the moment be what it is. To take in everything it has to give. You are able to hold so much, each feeling signaling something that matters to you — and that's such a wonderfully human thing if you can give yourself space for that.
An original mixed media painting, 20 x 20 cm canvas, 24 x 24 cm framed, acrylic paint, oil pastels, watercolor pencil. This piece comes framed in a wooden floater frame and is ready to hang.
The painting has been built, layer by layer, mark by mark, until a beautifully, balanced work of art emerged – deep and complex.
Payment plans are available. Please contact me if you wish to set up a plan together.

All original artwork is shipped with a Certificate of Authenticity and then wrapped in multiple layers of acid-free packaging, padded and shipped in a well-fitting sturdy cardboard box or flat mailer.
All art prints are wrapped in protective packaging and shipped in a well-fitting sturdy tube or mailer.
The majority of artwork will be shipped via PostNL. Most domestic packages arrive within 3-5 business days from the time of shipment.

I love shipping art globally! Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on package weight and distance. Large paintings that are shipped internationally may have to be unstretched and shipped in a tube due to a) safety reasons and b) shipping companies' regulations regarding the maximum size of a package. You can get your painting restretched of course and I'm happy to advise you on that!
International buyers, please note that border fees, handling fees, etc. may be charged based on the destination country. Please contact me via the contact form on the website or email me at BethanyKristineArt@Gmail.com with questions or to receive a shipping estimate. -

All sales are final. But of course, sometimes life happens. Please email BethanyKristineArt@Gmail.com if there is an issue with your artwork.
If you are concerned about your package getting lost or damaged during delivery you can choose to have it shipped with insurance (I do recommend this. Especially with original paintings and/ or international shipments).
I am not liable for any mishandling or failed delivery by the shipping service and I am not liable for any damage incurred post-delivery. I take great care to package each order safely in sturdy materials with ample support and notice that the package should be handled with care.
