Executed in 2002 as part of the artist's Breathing Series, this work presents a round organic form reminiscent of a seed. The composition is rendered with deft brushwork, with rich brown tones set against a muted palette, creating a harmonious balance of form. Idea as small as seed, when inspiration comes and at the right timing, coupled with hard work, diligence, and discipline, can achieve magnificent results!
