Signed on the back.

"Acts of Devotion" oil on paper, 18 x 14. This item is sold unmounted and unframed.

Many claim to have found God in the mountains. I donโ€™t know what God is, but I admit to having sought her there too. Whatever my search, I have found that the pursuit of scientific inquiry โ€” its own, necessarily limited kind of truth-seeking โ€” can be as much an act of devotion as it is scholarly meditation. For to pay attention to the world, to seek its stories, to run your fingers along some crack of rock or furrow of tree bark, to admire a raptor in flight, to look, closely, at the construction of a previously unencountered wildflower โ€” to wonder and to seek answers to how these things might have come to be in the world โ€” are themselves acts of devotion, ways of knowing, ways of longing for communion. - RICHARD J. NEVLE

In this case, the interconnectedness of hope and despair, one necessary for the other.Exploring the  superpowers in all of us - because each of us has something spectacularly powerful and unique.
