Mesopotamian Iris

Small Joys Day 11.

Part of the Small Joys:100 Days of Healing Flowers painting collection, this original artwork began as a quiet moment of observation in the studio; a study of color, texture and the fleeting beauty found in everyday botanical forms.

Each painting in this series is created as a small, intimate work meant to bring warmth, reflection and a sense of seasonal presence into your space. These pieces are designed to be collected, lived with, and revisited over time like field notes preserving brief moments of wonder.

Original mixed media painting by Malaika Ross.
