Marigold Flower & Stone Hummingbird

This vibrant 6x6 shadow box captures a graceful moment of connection between earth and sea. A hummingbird crafted from authentic shale rock collected from Lake Champlain is positioned in the top left corner, its beak gently angled downward as if drawn to the beauty below.

In the bottom right, a three-petal flower rises upward in elegant motion, created from genuine sea glass sourced from the Amalfi Coast. The petals feature a rich, color enhanced marigold hue, glowing with warm golden tones that evoke sunlight, joy, and coastal warmth.

The diagonal composition between hummingbird and bloom creates a natural flow of movement, like a quiet exchange between sky and garden, flight and growth. The contrast of rugged Lake Champlain shale and smooth ocean-tumbled glass brings together strength and softness in perfect balance.

A one-of-a-kind handcrafted piece, this artwork blends natural materials, coastal inspiration, and radiant color into a timeless expression of nature in motion.
