Palette Keepsake No. 9 Within the Pause Original Art by Renee Smith

There are seasons when the in-between isn’t something to fix or rush through.
It becomes a place you stay.

Within the Pause was painted from that space ... where breathing comes before answers, where you learn what to hold and what can be loosened, and where movement isn’t required until you’re ready.

This one is quiet, layered, and intentional.
A small piece that carries a lot of presence.

Painted on a wooden artist’s palette, this original work is both art and artifact ... a reminder that some moments are meant to be inhabited, not pushed past.

• One of a kind

This piece is for those seasons when stillness is part of the work —
when you don’t need answers yet,
and you don’t have to move before you’re ready.
