When the color gets dark

These days I'm painting a picture that's taking a very dark turn. The tones are deep, intense, almost gloomy.
I think it reflects exactly what I'm carrying inside me these days: a silent and deep sadness.
Perhaps this is also what painting serves: to give shape and color to what we cannot express, to transform darkness into image, to not leave it closed inside us.
After all, even in the darkest tones, a point of light can emerge.
