She, Surrounded by Light

moment of quiet transformation.

Bathed in soft golden light and surrounded by drifting butterflies, this piece captures the feeling of stepping into warmth after a long season of waiting. There is a sense of openness in her posture — hands relaxed, face lifted, as if she is welcoming something new rather than searching for it.

The butterflies move gently around her, symbolizing change, growth, and the quiet unfolding of self. The pastel tones keep the scene calm and tender, giving the piece a peaceful presence that feels both hopeful and grounding.

This artwork was created to reflect renewal — the moment when light returns, when confidence begins to rebuild, and when joy slowly finds its way back. It speaks to softness, healing, and the beauty of simply being present in a gentle moment.

Part of the Women in Pastel collection, this piece represents awakening, transformation, and the quiet strength found in light.
