Where Light Begins
8 x 8 inches (20.3 x 20.3 cm)
Where Light Begins is an original botanical textile mixed media artwork created with layered fabric, Czech glass beads, pearl beads, and a crystal center on cradled birch panel. Part of the Floral and Botanical Collection, this cheerful and luminous piece captures the quiet joy of a single bloom opening into the day — rooted in the beauty of simplicity, lightness, and the small moments of happiness that make a home feel alive.
A single yellow lily fills the composition with generous, unhurried grace — its layered petals constructed from a beautiful array of fabrics in sunshine yellow, soft gold, chartreuse, and cream, each one carrying its own distinct pattern from florals to dots to honeycomb prints, radiating outward with the easy confidence of a flower that knows exactly what it is. At the heart of the bloom, a delicate starburst of green fabric stamens fans outward, tipped with pearl beads in soft iridescent white that catch the light like morning dew, anchored at the center by a single sparkling crystal that holds the whole composition together with quiet luminosity. Green fabric leaves and stems anchor the lily below, their edges traced with Czech glass beads in soft green and silver that add a subtle shimmer and dimensional quality to every leaf tip and curve. The background is a softly illustrated blue and white toile-style printed fabric alive with botanical drawings of potted plants, trailing vines, garden tools, and — tucked quietly to the left — a sleeping dog curled contentedly among the garden scenes, a tender detail that rewards the careful observer and gives the piece an unexpected warmth and intimacy.
Balancing cheerfulness and calm, Where Light Begins is a small moment of happiness stitched into place — an invitation to notice the lightness that a single bloom can bring. This is a piece for the collector who wants a home filled not just with art, but with feeling. This piece is part of the Floral and Botanical Collection.
