A hummingbird feeds at the tubular blossom of a honeysuckle vine. The loosely painted and differently colored green leaves frame the scene. Painted in detail, the bird stands out against the pale blue sky.
About the Artist
Artist Mary Beatty-Brooks finds endless inspiration in nature, often creating still lifes of her flowers and plants. "Whatever I paint is usually inspired by light, space, movement, color, and the way things grow," says Mary. She studied Fashion Figure Drawing in college before transitioning to General Illustration and later earning a graduate degree in Biomedical Illustration. After a 29-year career as a medical illustrator, graphic designer, and photographer, she returned to painting. Her studio, often cluttered, overlooks the woods and her bird feeders, with her dog, Buddy, keeping her company while she works. When not making art, Mary enjoys gardening, walking in nature, and spending time near the ocean. In the summer, she does face painting and henna tattoos at a local amusement park.

A small, delicate nest cradles two blue eggs, its woven twigs and fibers forming intricate textures. Painted on an aluminum panel, the surface lends a subtle luminosity to the composition. The artwork celebrates nature's quiet beauty and the fragility of new life.
About the Artist
Artist Jennifer Ross finds inspiration in gathering and replicating fragments of nature.
