About the artwork

She seems not quite of this world - a creature of light and stillness, born of winter glow and soft dreams. Her face, fine as porcelain, is adorned with freckles that twinkle like tiny stars. Each dot is a spark of her own sky, a reminder of where she came from. Stardust in human form.

Her blonde hair, loosely put up, falls in single curly locks that frame her face like golden threads. She wears a grey woollen jumper, simple but full of warmth, like a cloud in which she wraps herself safely. The background - a mixture of grey and emerald blue - seems to move like a winter sky in which the northern lights dance softly.

On her head is a small Christmas tree, wrapped with fine threads of light on which golden stars twinkle. The light is soft, never bright - as if it does not illuminate her, but from within it enhances her glow. In her ear shines a single poinsettia, like a secret sign that she understands the language of light.

Her gaze is tender, loving and attentive, as if she sees something others cannot see - something between heaven and earth. Her eyes reflect a peaceful wisdom, a gentle knowing that everything is connected.

"Star Child" is the story of a soul that shines without shining, that carries light without having to look for it. She reminds us that beauty is not loud, but quiet; that light does not always come from above, but sometimes just from a person himself.

A child of light, a whisper of the universe in human form. Christmas mass. Christmas tree. Poinsettia.
