In Goldenrod is inspired by the quiet yet powerful moments of motherhood—where time slows down, and the embrace of a child feels like the center of the world. Set in a goldenrod field, the painting’s abstract landscape blends with soft hues of yellow and pink, creating a warm and dreamlike atmosphere. The figures seem to merge with their surroundings, emphasizing the deep emotional connection between them.
This piece reflects my personal experience of motherhood, where love, care, and fleeting moments of closeness are ever-present. I hope viewers will feel a sense of warmth and nostalgia, perhaps recalling their own childhood or moments of deep connection with loved ones. The goldenrod field represents both the vibrancy of life and the passage of time—its golden tones evoking both light and transience.
I chose oil paint for its depth, softness, and ability to capture emotion through expressive brushwork. The abstract setting allows the focus to remain on feeling rather than detail, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the emotion of the scene. In Goldenrod is an invitation to cherish the moments that shape us, the quiet beauty of love, and the golden light of memories we hold close.
