quietly beautiful








I love things that are quietly beautiful. These tiny happy spring flowers that you could easily miss they are so small and their smell is sweet in a whispery sort of way. I think female birds are often more lovely than their showy male counterparts. I like secrets and things that you find by quietly observing. I like subtlety and resonance and things that have no beginning or end.

    So beautiful.
    Those flowers seems rare, they only have four petals. What is the name of that symetric little plant?

    Thank you Aimme and cecilia.
    Hanna I am not sure what they are called but they appear in sweet little bunches near the moss each spring here in New Hampshire. I like how they start out as a folded square.

    so often the most beautiful things are the simplest and quietest of we take the time to notice them.

    Beautiful artwork as always.

    Aris---

    I am so blown away by your work. The softness (and you refer to here) is intoxicating. Something I wish I could replicate in my own work...but simply can't.

    Do you sell your art? I would love to bring some of this peacefulness into my home :)
