Sparkling Series invites the presence of peace within oneself, and also self-reflection and play. Calligraphic drawing of graphite, pearlescent acrylic paint, and fibers represents the interplay between earth and spirit. Water reflections interweave organic material, leaves twigs, translucent color wash, and man-made fabric to expose opeings in the veil.

The image portrays an intricate artwork that is primarily executed in shades of blue and green with the presence of other accent colors. Notably, there is a white feather print positioned along the bottom edge, which adds a touch of white, black, and purple to the composition. The use of different techniques, including Monotype, drawing and collage contributes to the variety of textures visible within the piece, featuring layered paint and pencil as well as collage elements.
