The Goose Girl

Watercolor painting that captures a moment of stillness in ‘Icarus Has Fallen’ after his fate has been sealed. As he rests upon the rocks, a cold, lingering sadness lingers within the air as the viewer is put into a position of helplessness, unable to change this tragedy. Exhibited at group exhibition "Once Upon a Time" at Echo Park Art Gallery in Los Angeles, CA, in June 2025. Also accepted into the international art competition "Art Prize" in Grand Rapids, MI.
