Spring in a Basket

Mixed Media Art, Acrylic on Wood, framed with a Floating Frame made from Natural Wood

In a quiet village surrounded by painted hills, two small siblings carried a basket filled with spring flowers. They walked slowly, their steps careful on the winding path they knew so well. That morning, they had found the first golden blossoms shining through the grass, as if the ground itself had begun to bloom. With small hands, they picked more along the way—soft and bright, like pieces of sunshine. Their basket, woven from palm leaves by their grandmother, was almost too big for them, but they carried it together. No one in the village remembered exactly when their little tradition began, but every spring, someone would spot two little children heading toward the hills, the basket swinging between them, leaving a trail of color behind.
