“Count your chicks at the end of Autumn” This is a powerful proverb about resilience and the pursuit of our goals. Autumn, a season of reckoning, serves as a poignant metaphor for the chicks's lives. Hatched in the spring and nurtured through the summer, chicks embody early potential and growth, much like our dreams, which often seem boundless at the start. However, as the cold weather approaches, symbolizing the challenges we encounter in striving for our goals, these young lives face a season of harsh trials. Many do not survive, only the strongest and most resilient endure. In the past, this critical period was navigated by women who cared for the chicks with devotion, seeing their survival as a reflection of the family’s hopes and dreams. Successfully guiding the chicks through autumn became a triumph, each surviving chick symbolizing hope and the realization of true success. Physical Watercolor 4000*4000 pix
