Title: Peace on Earth
Size: 9” x 12” hot press water color paper
Medium: Mixed media (watercolor, acrylic, and pencil on paper)
This intimate mixed-media portrait captures a hushed, contemplative moment between a child and a white bird, rendered in a soft, earth-toned palette. The child’s face emerges gently from layered washes of warm browns and creams, with subtle pencil lines defining delicate features and a downward, introspective gaze. Textural contrasts play a central role: translucent watercolor stains mingle with thicker, opaque strokes of white, giving the bird a sculptural, almost luminous presence against the muted background. The surrounding marks feel organic and weathered, as if time and memory have been absorbed into the surface itself. Together, the child and bird evoke themes of innocence, protection, and quiet companionship, creating a tender, dreamlike atmosphere that invites the viewer into a moment of stillness and reflection.
