Original artwork description:

This small oil painting was inspired by the quiet beauty of early spring — that subtle moment when life begins to stir, and the first catkins bloom on the bare branches. I’ve always been drawn to this fleeting transition between winter and spring, and I wanted to capture the delicate elegance of a willow branch bathed in warm light.

I painted each bud with great care to express the softness of the fluff, the fragile yellow pollen, and the gentle curves of the branch. The background remains blurred and warm, in rose and ochre tones, to enhance the contrast and create a sense of quiet intimacy. Though small in size (18x24 cm), this piece holds a lot of tenderness and air — like a memory suspended in time.

This original artwork is executed in classical realism using professional oil paints. It is signed, varnished for protection, and comes ready to be cherished as a tranquil accent in any room.
