Plumeria

8 x 8, Acrylic & Ink on Panel, 2026

Part of the Small Wonders collection, Plumeria captures the quiet beauty of a tropical flower through bold color and intricate pattern. Soft white and yellow petals emerge against deep green leaves, while touches of blue and burgundy add unexpected accents throughout the composition.

The flower is surrounded by a field of tightly woven, hand-drawn lines that seem to move and flow around the natural forms. I enjoy this contrast between the simplicity of the flower and the complexity of the world surrounding it—a visual tension that encourages the viewer to slow down and look closely.

Painted on wood and finished with hand-drawn ink details, Plumeria is a small celebration of tropical nature, pattern, and the abundance of detail found in the natural world.
