A Soul in Torment I

The profound and often silent struggles of a lonely soul in torment. In a world that seems more connected than ever, it's ironic that so many individuals find themselves navigating the labyrinth of loneliness. Loneliness is not just the absence of company; it is a very complex, nuanced emotion that can permeate even the most crowded spaces. It is the ache of isolation, the weight of unspoken words, and the yearning for a connection that seems elusive. Surrounded by people, yet feeling like an island in the vast sea of humanity.

Imagine a soul that, like a solitary traveler, walks through the corridors of life unnoticed. It's a soul that craves the warmth of understanding, the embrace of empathy, and the solace of genuine connection. Loneliness often wears a cloak of invisibility, masking the silent cries for companionship. A smile on the outside while wrestling with the storms within.

The lonely soul, nursing a broken heart, is like a sailor navigating stormy seas with no lighthouse to guide them home. Love, once a source of joy and warmth, transforms into a haunting melody echoing through the corridors of solitude. It's a pain that transcends the physical realm, leaving an indelible mark on the spirit. Each step feels heavier, each smile carries a hint of sorrow, and every memory is tinged with the bittersweet taste of what was lost.

In these moments of profound loneliness, the world can appear cold and unforgiving. The lonely soul yearns for the solace of understanding, a compassionate touch that mends the fractures in their emotional landscape. It is not a sign of weakness to admit vulnerability, nor is it a testament to a lack of resilience. The lonely soul, healing from a broken heart, is a testament to the strength required to confront the complexities of human emotions.

Can I ask for my print to be framed?

If you wish, the art print can be framed at an additional cost that must be paid through PayPal. To do this, you must contact me by writing to info@jaquelinevanek.com. You can specify what type of frame you want or you can ask for my suggestions.

If my purchase is a gift, can I request a dedication?

Of course you can! Please write to info@jaquelinevanek.com specifying the order number and the name of the person you want the note to be addressed to.

Packaging

Depending on the size, the prints are shipped rolled up in a tube or in a rigid envelope. In both cases, they are protected with onion paper and/or bubble wrap, some gloves are attached that I recommend using when handling the prints.

Shipping Time

Since I contract third parties for the production of the works (a printing company and a transport service) and all prints are produced on demand, I cannot establish a fixed time, but an approximate one. The approximate time for you to receive your order after sending it is 2-3 weeks under normal conditions depending on the shipping location (extraordinary conditions could be, for example, restrictions due to a storm, vacation periods, etc.).
