Violets and artists who explore their inner selves have a resemblance.

These small, delicate flowers thrive in the shade, hidden from the brightness of the open field. Their ecological nature makes them the symbol of the pursuit of hidden beauty—a quality that resonates with the creative process of artists who delve into their deep emotions and thoughts.

Violets herald the arrival of spring, representing new beginnings and growth. Artists too journey toward the possibility of growth and hope, through the reds and blues within themselves.

They invite us to take a breath and reflect on our lives. We find comfort and become empathetic.
