Quiet Garden

A delicate botanical scene blooms within a soft white frame, where pastel flowers sway gently on wisps of green glass stems. Their abstract forms hint at nature’s spontaneity—each petal formed from frit and stringer, composed like a fleeting moment captured in stillness. A raised panel adds dimensional interest, drawing your gaze inward toward the center of this peaceful vignette, like a tiny wildflower bed found in the calmest corner of a garden.

On the right, vertical lines and glass dots balance the composition with minimalist grace, evoking the rhythm of falling rain or a stylized trellis. The subtle asymmetry—accented by the organic edge on the upper right—lends the piece an earthy authenticity. It’s a quiet celebration of imperfection, harmony, and the tender beauty found in simple things. Perfect as a standalone art tile or displayed in a sunlit nook, this piece invites a moment of pause and presence. Stand not included.
