Original artwork description:

This piece is drawn from one of my earliest and most cherished childhood memories—a quiet moment holding a hen in my arms. I remember the warmth of her body, the weight of her stillness, and the soft rustle of her feathers against my skin. There was something incredibly grounding about that moment, a kind of unspoken understanding between us that stayed with me.

Painting this was my way of returning to that sense of calm and closeness. Through muted tones and gentle textures, I wanted to capture the quiet, timeless space where memory lives—not exact, but deeply felt. This work is an invitation to pause, to reconnect with the small, quiet moments that shape who we become.
