Mum's Vase

There’s a hush in the room — the kind of stillness that holds presence. On a modest wooden desk, a clear glass vase rests with water catching the light. Inside, a simple gathering of sweet peas leans gently — soft pinks and purples with tender green stems twisting below the surface.

Painted in a quiet office during a pause in the day, this piece captures more than just flowers. Behind it, a half-blue wall, a timber-framed door, and a sliver of glass suggest life happening beyond the frame — yet here, time is paused.

"Mum’s Vase" isn’t just about the blooms. It’s about the feeling of being held, remembered, and gently rooted — a fleeting everyday moment steeped in memory and maternal grace.
