Inspired by a summer evening in Sicily, this original watercolor painting brings together two memories from the island: a Sardinian warbler and an unripe pomegranate.
We heard the bird’s beautiful song every day outside our apartment. Its soft grey plumage, red eye and lively presence made it feel like a small companion throughout the trip. Since my work is usually rooted in botanical subjects, I wanted to place the bird among something that also belonged to my experience of Sicily.
On our final evening, we walked through the warm sunset toward our favourite restaurant. Along the way, we passed a garden where pomegranates were growing among dense green leaves. To me, the fruit felt both unfamiliar and distinctly Mediterranean, and it became the natural companion to the bird.
Together, they form a quiet portrait of Sicily as I remember it — birdsong outside an open window, lush gardens, warm evening light and the feeling of discovering something new.
The painting has a gentle, detailed character and is well suited for interiors inspired by nature, travel and botanical forms. It can become a distinctive addition to a gallery wall or a quiet focal point on its own.
Painted in 2026.
