Quiet Splendor
8 x 8 inches (20.3 x 20.3 cm)
Quiet Splendor is an original mixed media artwork created with gold leaf and watercolor image transfer, finished with Swarovski crystals, on cradled birch panel. Part of the Golden Hour Collection, this richly textured piece weaves together luminous color, intricate detail, and tactile depth — a single dragonfly resting in stillness among a field of fading blooms.
A dragonfly rests at the center of the composition, its body traced in a line of Swarovski crystals from head to tail, wings spread translucent against a weathered gold leaf ground layered with a watercolor image transfer in muted rust, moss, and plum tones, its aged, mottled texture reading like old parchment. Clusters of deep plum wildflowers gather below and beside the dragonfly, each blossom's center touched with a scattering of crystals, while slender wheat-like grasses and smaller violet blooms drift through the lower half of the piece.
Quiet Splendor is a celebration of stillness held in the middle of abundance — a single moment of rest among all that continues to grow. This is a piece for the collector who wants a home filled not just with art, but with feeling. This piece is part of the Golden Hour Collection.
