to light and shadow brings the flower to life. The artist worked wet-on-wet in
some areas while allowing other sections to dry completely.

enlightenment and the human capacity for transformation. The artist was particularly
moved by the flower's ability to remain pure despite growing in muddy waters,
symbolizing resilience and inner beauty.
