Arches Cold Press Vintage Watercolor paper, 2025

Swallows captivate me with their grace and beauty - gliding through the sky. Their shape, especially with those distinctive tails, creates a stunning contrast against the sky above.

To me, they symbolize so much more than just a pretty sight. They represent love, homecoming, and the profound journey of returning to oneself. As I embrace motherhood this year, I've found that my own journey mirrors that of the swallow. I am learning to navigate this new chapter while rediscovering my identity.

This watercolor painting is an expression of my journey, created on rough watercolor paper that adds a unique texture. It’s a part of my new series focused on birds, capturing not just their beauty but the deeper meanings they hold.
