An Unexpected Moment of Delight
6x8 in. oil on Linen Panel
Some moments arrive quietly—no grand plan, no ceremony. Just light slipping across the counter, catching the curve of a lemon and the intricate blue pattern of a porcelain bowl. This little still life began in the middle of the everyday chaos—schoolbooks scattered nearby, coffee gone cold, kids’ laughter echoing from the next room.
The blue and white chinoiserie bowl carries its quiet sense of tradition and calm, while the lemons bring their unapologetic brightness—a reminder that joy can be loud and radiant, even when life feels anything but still.
Painted in brief, borrowed moments, this piece holds the spirit of that season of life—the beauty that insists on being seen, even in the whirlwind. A small celebration of light, color, and the unexpected delight that finds its way into our busiest days.

I love how something as simple as lemons in a bowl can feel so full of life. The bright yellows against the blue and white pattern create this easy balance of warmth and calm. This piece is really about finding beauty in everyday moments—nothing fancy, just light, color, and a sense of stillness that makes you pause.
