Fragile Strength

This orchid crossed my path in a very unexpected manner, prompting me to rescue it and bring it back to my studio. Over the next couple of weeks, I observed it closely, admiring the delicate forms in the light. I found myself captivated by the sturdy limbs that supported these fragile flowers. It made me think of how, in life, where we think we see strength, it is actually found in its fragility.
