“Fresh Start at Home”
24 x 18 Oil
10 x 8 Oil
Artwork Description: At five months old, Mia Rose embodies beginning again. Her fresh, luminous face glows beneath a pink hoodie that casts soft rosy light across her plump, petal-soft skin. She is innocence without striving, a new life wrapped in warmth. In painting her, I felt my own heart stepping into a new season. This portrait is simply about new life, hope, and the beauty of starting fresh.
Artwork Description: Beneath the shifting surface, the koi gather in a swirl of color and motion — flashes of coral, ivory, and blue gliding through deep green waters. Each turn of their bodies feels like a quiet beginning, a movement forward without hesitation. Light catches their scales as if grace itself is brushing past them, reminding us that renewal is not always still or gentle, sometimes it is vibrant, alive, and full of momentum. Their circling feels like renewal in motion and a reminder that every new season calls us to move forward and begin again.
“Mia Rose: A New Beginning
“Henry”
Artwork Description: My friend, Henry. He sits with the relaxed confidence of someone entering a well-earned new season. Full-time work has eased into part-time rhythm, leaving more room for friends, travel, and the simple joy of unhurried days. The bright blues in his glasses and shirt reflect a spirit that’s still curious and fully engaged. This is a fresh start defined by balance, freedom, and enjoying life a little more on his own terms.

HONORABLE MENTION 2D ART
Artwork Description: Reclined in easy comfort, he leans into stillness, his loyal companion nestled close. There’s a sense of earned peace here, of choosing presence over pressure. In this season, life slows just enough to savor connection, companionship, and the simple gift of being at home in your own skin.
