Quiet Reflections
Size without frame: 23 cm x 30.5 cm
Medium: Acrylic on Canvas Panel, 2024

​"Quiet Reflections" is a minimalist exploration of serenity through the elegant form of a crane standing still in contemplation. In this piece, the crane represents grace and stillness, inviting the viewer into a moment of pause and introspection. The use of soft, flowing lines and a muted palette of blues and greens enhances the feeling of calm, creating a space for quiet reflection not only in the physical sense, but also within the self.
The negative space around the figure emphasizes openness and simplicity, allowing the viewer to focus on the subtle beauty of the crane, much like the way quiet moments in life can reveal clarity and depth. This piece encourages the viewer to find peace in stillness, and to connect with their own inner reflections, much like the gentle waters that mirror the crane's form.
