Forgotten Clay

In the painting Forgotten Clay, rustic flowers sit quietly in weathered clay vases, their delicate petals bending with time.

The ink lines are loose, suggesting the faint outlines of once-vibrant blooms, while the watercolour washes over them in soft, muted tones, like memories fading into the past. Each vase, worn and chipped, tells a story of hands that once shaped them, holding the fragile beauty of nature with care.

The abstract strokes evoke a sense of nostalgia, of something once cherished but now forgotten—yet still holding its place. The colours, earthy and subdued, blend together like the passing of seasons, hinting at the enduring bond between life and time. It's a piece that captures the quiet dignity of things left behind, the beauty of imperfection, and the peaceful acceptance that even in fading, there is grace.
