From the collection “Stars of Water”

“Morning Star” was inspired by the quiet, magical moments when light first touches the water. I wanted to capture that feeling of peace and renewal — the kind of beauty that exists only in the stillness of morning. The white water lilies, glowing with a soft golden center, remind me of how light transforms everything it touches.

Their petals, almost glasslike, reflect purity and clarity — a symbol of hope and new beginnings. The deep reflections of the green leaves beneath the surface create a sense of depth and mystery, reminding us that even in calmness, there is life and energy moving quietly below.

This painting is about light finding its way through the water — a reminder that each day begins with its own quiet miracle.
