About the Item
Artist Comments
A vivid red poppy stands at the center of a textured navy-blue background filled with delicate handwritten script. A gingham ribbon ties the stem, adding contrast and a touch of character. The mix of vibrant color, patterned fabric, and layered text creates a poetic balance between visual beauty and quiet reflection. This piece evokes themes of memory, individuality, and grace.
About the Artist
Artist Maria Karla Watson explores the emotional language of nature in her paintings and drawings. Birds, flowers, and handwritten texts appear throughout her work. “They are gentle reminders of life’s fragility, its tenderness, and its quiet strength,†says Maria. She studied fine art and credits her teachers with helping her build a strong foundation, though it was perseverance and faith that shaped her path. Maria works in her tidy New York City studio while listening to her favorite music. When she’s not making art, Maria finds inspiration on long walks, in books, and through time spent with her family.
