Created during the quiet summer of lockdown, when time slowed and the outside world felt distant Painted in a period of uncertainty, as a way of finding calm and focus through making Inspired by noticing what was still growing, opening, and quietly present, even in stillness Built slowly, layer by layer, allowing the colours and forms to unfold naturally A reflection on gentleness, resilience, and the quiet strength found in small moments Invites a sense of peace, space to breathe, and emotional grounding A reminder that even when life feels paused, beauty and growth continue An artwork rooted in patience, presence, and hopeful observation
