This series of seven whimsical floral abstracts invites viewers into a delicate world where history and imagination intertwine. Each piece, painted on the weathered, timeworn pages of vintage books, carries a sense of nostalgia and storytelling. The soft, muted colors of the floral motifs harmonize with the sepia-toned text beneath, creating a dialogue between the past and the present.

The flowers themselves are playful and dreamlike, with graceful, almost dance-like forms that feel as though they could sway with the gentlest breeze. The use of soft blues, gentle creamy whites, and 24k liquid gold leaf accents lends a sense of innocence and lightheartedness, as if these blooms have sprung from the whispers of forgotten words.

Emotionally, the series evokes a sense of warmth and tenderness, as though each page holds a quiet secret or a fleeting memory. The juxtaposition of organic shapes with the structured, printed text creates a poetic contrast—a celebration of beauty emerging from the mundane. Together, these pieces form a collection that feels both timeless and enchanting, capturing the viewer's heart with its charm and subtle narrative.
