"SERENADE OF THE SECRET GARDEN"
By Kat Furrow
“Serenade of the Secret Garden" is a mixed media artwork that blends magic and nature, capturing the mystical connection between a hummingbird and a flower. The piece transports viewers to an enchanting garden where time stands still, inviting a spiritual journey of trust and transformation. Inspired by the artist's affirmation word for 2023, "love," and a commitment to personal growth, this painting uses flowers as symbols of love. The work evolves intuitively, beginning in an art journal style and coming to life during a live painting event at a local winery. It symbolizes the mutualism of love, both in nature and human connection.
