This mixed media painting was inspired by one of my favorite flowers—the rose. I have always loved red roses, while turquoise and teal are among my favorite colors, so I wanted to bring these colors together in a piece that felt both vibrant and peaceful.

Flowers are often given as an expression of love, and this painting represents a simple desire of my heart: to create something beautiful that reflects the gift of love. The rose can remind us that love is one of the most beautiful gifts we can give and receive.

May this painting remind you that love is never a small thing. A kind word, a thoughtful gesture, or a simple act of love can bring beauty into someone's day. Let your life bloom with the love God has placed in your heart.
