The delicate beauty of the cyclamen has always captivated me, and this painting is a celebration of its graceful charm. Rendered in watercolour, the rich, dark pink petals radiate vibrancy and life, contrasting gently with the soft flowing greens of its foliage. In this piece, I aimed to capture not just the cyclamen’s form but also its essence. Its quiet strength and resilience, blooming even in the cooler months. The fluidity of watercolour allowed me to explore the translucent quality of the petals, while the interplay of light and shadow evokes a sense of depth and intimacy. This work invites the viewer to pause, reflect, and appreciate the simple yet profound beauty found in nature. The cyclamen, though small and unassuming, stands as a symbol of perseverance and elegance—an enduring muse for my creative journey.
