Tranquility's Roar - 24x20 Mixed Media Oil Painting
"Tranquility's Roar" is a stirring 24 x 20 inch original mixed media oil painting that captures the harmonious blend of serenity and strength, peace and power. This evocative vertical canvas showcases a lion at rest amidst a flourishing floral scene, embodying the profound truth that the most powerful beings are those who have nothing left to prove—who can be still, peaceful, and present without diminishing their inherent strength.
The Paradox of Peaceful Power
This professional-grade canvas presents a lion—the ultimate symbol of courage, sovereignty, and leadership—in a moment of complete tranquility, surrounded by abundant blooms in soft pinks, corals, creams, and verdant greens. The juxtaposition is striking and intentional: the lion does not need to roar to be powerful. Its presence alone commands respect. This painting symbolizes the quiet power that lies within stillness, the kind of strength that doesn't announce itself but is felt by everyone in the room.
The Silent Roar of True Courage
"Tranquility's Roar" is a testament to the silent roar of courage that echoes even in moments of calm. It honors the woman who has learned that she doesn't need to be loud to be heard, aggressive to be respected, or constantly in motion to be powerful. This painting celebrates the integration of masculine and feminine energies: the lion's fierce protectiveness softened by the flowers' gentle beauty, the capacity for both roar and rest, the wisdom of knowing when to act and when to simply be.
Stillness as the Ultimate Strength
The lion's peaceful expression and relaxed posture suggest a being so secure in its power that it can afford to be gentle, so confident in its sovereignty that it can rest among flowers without fear of appearing weak. This is the energy of the woman who has done her inner work, who knows her worth, and who no longer needs external validation or constant performance to prove she matters. Her power is quiet, grounded, and unshakeable.
Rich Layers Create Dimensional Beauty
Created using my signature mixed media technique, this 24 x 20 inch painting combines collage, acrylic washes, and luminous oil paint to build rich texture and depth. The lion's mane is rendered with dimensional brushwork that captures both its majesty and softness, while the surrounding florals are built up in layers that create movement and abundance. The vertical orientation emphasizes the lion's regal presence while the flowers soften and balance the composition, creating visual harmony between strength and gentleness.
Inspire Composed Bravery in Your Space
Perfect for inspiring a sense of composed bravery in your space, "Tranquility's Roar" serves as a daily reminder that you don't have to be loud to be powerful, busy to be productive, or aggressive to be strong. This painting speaks to women in leadership, mothers who protect fiercely yet parent gently, entrepreneurs building empires with grace, and anyone who has learned that the truest power is the kind that doesn't need to announce itself.
Ideal for home offices, bedrooms, meditation spaces, or anywhere you want to cultivate the energy of peaceful power. This piece makes a meaningful gift for women stepping into leadership, reclaiming their sovereignty, or learning that stillness is not weakness—it's the ultimate expression of confidence.

About the Lions and Bears Collection
"Tranquility's Roar" is part of my Lions and Bears collection, exploring the integration of strength and softness, power and peace. The lion represents courage, sovereignty, leadership, and the divine feminine in her most powerful form. When depicted at rest among flowers, the lion becomes a symbol of evolved power—the kind that doesn't need constant display, the strength that's secure enough to be gentle, the courage that's confident enough to be still. This painting honors the women who have learned that the loudest roar is sometimes silence, that the greatest strength is often stillness, and that true power whispers rather than shouts.
