First Light

6 x 6 inches (15.2 x 15.2 cm)

First Light is an original botanical mixed media artwork created with watercolor decal, Swarovski crystals, and gold foil on cradled birch panel. Part of the Floral and Botanical Collection, this richly textured piece weaves together luminous color, intricate detail, and tactile depth — a single, sunlit branch caught in first light.

A hummingbird in soft watercolor decal descends toward a flowering branch that stretches across a solid gold foil ground, its wings washed in blues, purples, and greens. Below, a cluster of watercolor blossoms opens in dusty blue and green tones, its center studded with Swarovski crystals standing in for pollen. Smaller blossoms trail along the branch on either side, each touched with a single crystal at its heart, while a monarch butterfly, its wings dotted in crystal, rests near the base of the composition.

First Light is a celebration of the quiet start of things — the first visitor to a blossom just opened. 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.
