Watercolor, Colored Pencil, and Pressed Botanicals on Sketchbook Paper (Van Gogh Sketchbook)

This mixed-media piece captures a radiant moment of joyful connection between a figure and the natural world, utilizing the juxtaposition of fluid color and tactile botanicals. The composition features a woman’s profile, smiling and reaching out toward an enormous, intensely textured sunflower-like bloom.The concept explores the theme of ephemeral beauty and sensory delight. The key stylistic choice is the incorporation of pressed, dried flower petals to construct the center and rays of the yellow bloom, giving the artwork a tangible, three-dimensional texture.
